The radon concentrations showed diurnal, seasonal, yearly variations and correlation with external temperature in selected caves. The seasonal effects was observed in the record of active fault displacements at sites close to the surface too, reflecting the peak-to-peak massif dilation amplitude. Many events was registered that link these two geofactors.
