Spektrale aktinische Flussdichten und Photolysefrequenzen – Untersuchungen in der atmosphärischen Grenzschicht und der freien Troposphäre
Solar UV radiation is driving atmospheric photochemistry because the photolysis of atmospheric trace gases yields highly reactive atoms or radicals. Thus, trace gas concentrations as well as accurate photolysis frequencies are needed to understand atmospheric photochemical processes. Especially unde...

Solar UV radiation is driving atmospheric photochemistry because the photolysis of atmospheric trace gases yields highly reactive atoms or radicals. Thus, trace gas concentrations as well as accurate photolysis frequencies are needed to understand atmospheric photochemical processes.
