Abstract	The aim of the selection process was to define a subset of hourly radon observations corresponding to oceanic air parcels that were least perturbed by land emissions and exhibiting minimal exchange with the free troposphere, so that an equilibrium could be assumed between the measured radon concentrations and their oceanic source. The initial dataset included all events in the Cape Grim Baseline sector, defined solely by local wind direction (190o< θ <280o). In this set, more than 75% of the hourly radon observations were already below 100 mBq m−3.
