UV Radiation and the Skin [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 UV radiation (UV) is classified as a “complete carcinogen” because it is both a mutagen and a non-specific damaging agent and has properties of both a tumor initiator and a tumor promoter. In environmental abundance, UV is the most important modifiable risk factor for skin cancer and many other environmentally-influenced skin disorders.

Effects of UV radiation on natural and synthetic materials
Photochemical and Photobiological Sciences, 2023 The deleterious effects of solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation on construction materials, especially wood and plastics, and the consequent impacts on their useful lifetimes, are well documented in scientific literature.

Stratospheric ozone, UV radiation, and climate interactions
Photochemical and Photobiological Sciences, 2023 This assessment provides a comprehensive update of the effects of changes in stratospheric ozone and other factors (aerosols, surface reflectivity, solar activity, and climate) on the intensity of ultraviolet (UV) radiation at the Earth’s surface.

Perception of solar UV radiation by plants: photoreceptors and mechanisms
Plant Physiology, 2021 About 95% of the ultraviolet (UV) photons reaching the Earth’s surface are UV-A (315–400 nm) photons. Plant responses to UV-A radiation have been less frequently studied than those to UV-B (280–315 nm) radiation.
