Characteristics of solar UV irradiance

Characteristics of solar UV irradiance

Solar UVB irradiance is measured worldwide with the Robertson-Berger sunburn meter whose spectral sensitivity is adapted to the action spectrum of human erythema. Thus, the Robertson-Berger sunburn meter measures the erythemal effective irradiance. In Alpine areas, on cloudless days in midsummer, th...
