The UV Index was established more than 20 years ago as a tool for sun protection and
health care. Shortly after its introduction, UV Index monitoring started in several countries …

In this paper, we pick up the idea of the “UV-Biometer”: the use of erythemal weighted
broadband meters for other photobiological endpoints. Therefore, nine different types of …

Cloud impacts on the transfer of ultraviolet (UV) radiation through the atmosphere can be
assessed by using a cloud modification factor (CMF). CMF, which is based on total global …

An analysis is made of experimental ultraviolet erythemal solar radiation data measured
during the years 2000 and 2001 by the Spanish UV‐B radiation evaluation and prediction …

The Austrian UVB monitoring network is operational since 1997. Nine detectors for
measuring erythemally weighted solar UV irradiance are distributed over Austria in order to …

This article aims at improving the broadband ultraviolet radiometer's calibration
methodology. For this goal, three broadband radiometers are calibrated against a …

A method is presented that combines individual ground based ultraviolet (UV)
measurements and satellite data from MSG (Meteosat Second Generation) to generate a UV …

This paper focuses on the application of a simple analytical parameterization to the filling of
the Ultraviolet Index (UVI) data gaps, and the reconstruction of past UVI values at Badajoz …

The ultraviolet index (UVI) is the most commonly used variable to inform about the level and
potential harmful effect of ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching the Earth's surface. This …

The erythemal radiometers of the Ultraviolet Monitoring Network of the Argentine Servicio
Meteorológico Nacional were calibrated in an extensive in situ campaign from October 1998 …
