The results of monitoring of consistent variations of radiation quantities on the time scales from synoptic to annual ones are analyzed in the paper. Alone or in a certain set, these radiation quantities can serve as indicators of extreme natural and anthropogenic phenomena. It is shown that the balance between the main sources of ionizing radiation in the near ground atmosphere depends on season, and the extremes appear due to processes of melting (formation) of snow cover. A method was developed to determine an optimal set of radiation quantities, which can be reliable tracers/indicators of extreme natural or anthropogenic phenomena when synchronously monitored.

Key words: ionizing radiation, atmosphere, indicator
