Measurements of ultraviolet (UV) radiation at 38 stations from Chinese Ecosystem Research Network during 2006–2012 were used for reconstructing the historical UV levels in China for the first time. UV models were introduced by analyzing the dependence of UV irradiation on clearness index (Kt)...

Observations of UV radiation (290–400 nm) at Yanting, China (31°16′ N, 105°27′ E and 420 m above sea level) from 2005 to 2012 were used for investigating UV variability and its relationship with global solar radiation in Southwest China. Daily UV/G ratios generally increased from 3.7%...
