Dependence of UV-B Radiation on Ozone Concentration and Solar Zenith Angle at three African Stations

Dependence of UV-B Radiation on Ozone Concentration and Solar Zenith Angle at three African Stations

~ 9dc85255d5dea59d2cd74610c2f27251.200x200
This work is aimed at expatiating further on the theory of radiation amplification factor (RAF) as it relates to UV-B irradiance and the solar zenith angles (SZA). The radiation amplification factor (RAF) ideology was employed in the derivation of UV-B variation over some stations in Africa namely, Lagos in Nigeria, Dakar in Senegal and Nampula in Zimbabwe for the period 1997 to 2002. Both UV-B...
