Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review. [PDF]
Photochem PhotobiolSolar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.
