Erythemal ultraviolet irradiation trends in the Iberian Peninsula from 1950 to 2011
Erythemal ultraviolet (UVER) irradiation was reconstructed at nine Spanish locations, with series starting around 1950 in five of these places. Each series was checked by applying homogeneity tests in order to discard non-homogeneous series. Available series were used to create an averaged Iberian P...

| description | Erythemal ultraviolet (UVER) irradiation was reconstructed at nine Spanish
locations, with series starting around 1950 in five of these places. Each
series was checked by applying homogeneity tests in order to discard
non-homogeneous series. Available series were used to create an averaged
Iberian Peninsula UVER series. Results indicate that annual UVER irradiation
in the Iberian Peninsula increased by 155 Jm<sup>−2</sup> (6.5%) between 1950
and 2011 due to the decrease observed in atmospheric ozone rather than
changes in aerosol and clouds. By contrast, annual UVER irradiation increased
by 135 Jm<sup>−2</sup> (5.6%) between 1985 and 2011, mainly due to changes in
aerosol and clouds. |
