The Direct Influence of Aerosols on UV Irradiance and the Development of a Synthetic Current UV Index

The extinction of solar radiation by atmospheric aerosols influences the Ultraviolet (UV) flux at the surface, which in turn has implications on both human and environmental health. In this study we present measurements of aerosol optical depth ( and #964;a) in the UV at Boulder, Colorado and Atlant...
