Patagonia area is located in close proximity to the Antarctic ozone “hole” and thus receives
enhanced ultraviolet B (UV‐B) radiation (280–315 nm) in addition to the normal levels of …

Abstract Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR, 280–400 nm) is known to cause a number of
detrimental effects in aquatic organisms. The area of Patagonia, which is sometimes under …

This paper presents 23 years (1992–2014) of quasi-continuous measurements of the total
ozone column (TOC) over the Southern Space Observatory (SSO) in São Martinho da Serra …

During a summer period we studied the vertical variation of in vivo and chlorophyll a specific
phytoplankton absorption spectra in relation to the underwater light climate of ten deep …

Satellite image studies and recent in situ sampling have identified conspicuous
