Thank you for the answer John. I actually got in touch with the author paper [1] and there was a numeric error that propagated throughout the publication. The correct
relationship is:
UV-B [W/m2] = 0.189 UVI
So for the previous example (UVI = 6) , the correct result would be:
UV-B [W/m2] = 1.3...
Hi all,
I am interested in estimating the amount of UVA and UVB from the UVI index for parctical purposes.
I have found 2 research papers that shed some light on the matter (see [1][2]).
Let us define first UVB as the solar irradiance integral in the range 280-315mm
and UVA as the solar...
