Far UV-C radiation: An emerging tool for pandemic control
Critical reviews in environmental science and technology, 2022 Far UV-C, informally defined as electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 200 and 230 nm, has characteristics that are well-suited to control of airborne pathogens. Specifically, Far UV-C has been shown to be highly effective for inactivation of

Variability of atmospheric dimethylsulphide over the southern Indian Ocean due to changes in ultraviolet radiation [PDF]
, 2003 Dimethylsulphide (DMS) is a climatically important component of global biogeochemical cycles, through its role in the sulphur cycle. Changes in ultraviolet radiation (UV) exhibit both positive and negative forcings on the dynamics of production and ...

Collapse of Low Mass Clouds in the Presence of UV Radiation Field [PDF]
, 2000 The collapse of marginally Jeans unstable primordial gas clouds in the presence of UV radiation field is discussed. Assuming that the dynamical collapse proceeds approximately in an isothermal self-similar fashion, we investigate the thermal evolution of

UV radiation increases phenolic compound protection but decreases reproduction in Silene littorea
PLoS ONE, 2020 Plants respond to changes in ultraviolet (UV) radiation both morphologically and physiologically. Among the variety of plant UV-responses, the synthesis of UV-absorbing flavonoids constitutes an effective non-enzymatic mechanism to mitigate ...

Revista de Psicología, 2020 Decreased UV radiation is associated with augmented depression, drug use, and domestic violence. Findings entailing folic acid suggest that gender moderates such relationships. The present study was designed to evaluate the relationship between UV radiation and Neuroticism among females and males. Representative consumer panels of three Peruvian cities
