Sunburned plankton: ultraviolet radiation inhibition of phytoplankton photosynthesis in the Community Earth System Model version 2 [PDF]
Geoscientific Model DevelopmentUltraviolet (UV) radiation can damage DNA and kill cells. We use laboratory and observational studies of the harmful effect of UV radiation on marine photosynthesizers to inform the implementation of a UV radiation damage function for phytoplankton ...

Working group written presentation: Solar radiation [PDF]
The members of the Solar Radiation Working Group arrived at two major solar radiation technology needs: (1) generation of a long term flight data base; and (2) development of a standardized UV testing methodology. The flight data base should include 1 to

Extinction transition in bacterial colonies under forced convection
, 2000 We report the spatio-temporal response of {\it Bacillus subtilis} growing on a nutrient-rich layer of agar to ultra-violet (UV) radiation. Below a crossover temperature, the bacteria are confined to regions that are shielded from UV radiation.

The Effect of Increased UV-B Radiation on the Terrestrial Ecosystem
Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2019 Against rapidly developing industry and increasing population, natural resources on earth are getting destroyed. One of the most important adverse effects on the environment is perhaps the depletion of ozone layer which protects the earth from harmful ...

Possibilities to estimate the personal UV radiation exposure from ambient UV radiation measurements
Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2020 People are exposed to solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) throughout their entire lives. Exposure to UVR is vital but also poses serious risks. The quantification of human UVR exposure is a complex issue. Personal UVR exposure is related to ambient UVR as well as to a variety of factors such as the orientation of the exposed anatomical site with respect ...
