Abstract

Quantitative spectral, solar UV measurements are introduced together with lunar spectral measurements in arbitrary units. Meteorological factors have a more pronounced effect on the UV irradiance than the ozone layer, and the ozone layer has an increasing attenuation effect towards higher latitudes. Coordinated biological and spectral lunar observations are outlined.
