100µSv/h

That's 5× as strong as a hotspot in Chernobyl’s Red Forest — nothing on our list beats it. A whole year in it would be about 876.6 mSv, against a world average of 2.4.

What it means

How much radiation is that?

Yearly figures assume constant exposure for all 8,766 hours of a year, which is how limits are written but rarely how life works.

The math

How to convert mSv/h to µSv/h

To convert millisieverts per hour to microsieverts per hour, multiply by 1,000.

Example: 0.1 mSv/h × 1,000 = 100 µSv/h.

In the other direction, 1 µSv/h = 0.001 mSv/h.
