Surface UV radiation environment over the Antarctic: Role of surface and cloud processes
This paper presents a review of a body of research regarding the UV environment over Antarctica. In particular, it explores the role of surface and cloud processes and their coupling on the highly variable UV radiation field. The main results of this research are that : (1) clouds may play a role on...
