<p>This paper provides a comparison of 3 techniques that are potentially useful for routine analysis of soil samples from selected monitoring sites in Singapore. The soil samples were measured for naturally occurring actinides (mainly ²³²Th and ²³⁸U). This study also highlights the adopted workflow for gamma measurements ensured equilibrium has been established from ²²⁶Ra to ²¹⁴Pb suggesting that the ²²²Rn has been wellcontained during the sample packing for gamma measurements. Among the three techniques evaluated in this paper, laser ablation ICP-MS demonstrated significant benefits in sample turnover (&lt; 5&#xa0;min per analysis) while providing information of the Uranium (isotopic information of ²³⁵U and ²³⁸U) and Thorium levels (²³²Th). On the other hand, the complete dissolution of soil samples and analyzed by the ICPMS/MS provides both precision and accuracy which correlates to values obtained by Gamma measurements. This study provides a general overview of both time requirement, sample size and precision of the data obtained which are important factors for consideration in a monitoring program.</p>
