Ground Based Measurements of Solar UV Index in Tabriz
Introduction: Ultraviolet index (UVI) is a dimensionless scale, which describes the maximum intensity and biologic effects of UV during a specific time, on surface of the earth. The UVI is an international standard measurement of the strength of sunburn producing ultraviolet radiation at a particular place and time. This index is an easy and understandable concept for pr...

متن کاملMesoscale distributions of UV spectral irradiance obtained by merging satellite remote sensing and ground-based measurements
Global atmospheric trends in ozone column amount has focused attention on the environmental risk of exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Monitoring UV irradiance in diverse and remote locations is necessary to understand the variability of exposure, dose rates and resultant vulnerability of ecological systems. The USDA UV-B Monitoring Program maintains a wide network for ground-based continu...
متن کاملCirrus cloud microphysical and optical properties at southern and northern midlatitudes during the INCA experiment
[1] Microphysical and optical measurements were performed in midlatitude cirrus clouds at temperatures between 33 C and 60 C during southern and northern Interhemispheric Differences in Cirrus Properties From Anthropogenic Emissions (INCA) field experiments carried out at equivalent latitudes (53 S and 55 N) from Punta Arenas in the Southern Hemisphere (SH, Chile) and Prestwick in the Northern ...
متن کاملComparison of OMI ozone and UV irradiance data with ground-based measurements at two French sites
Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI), launched in July 2004, is dedicated to the monitoring of the Earth’s ozone, air quality and climate. OMI is the successor of the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) instruments and provides among other atmospheric and radiometric quantities the total column of ozone (TOC), the surface ultraviolet (UV) irradiance at several wavelengths, the erythemal dose r...
