Changes in biologically-active ultraviolet radiation reaching the Earth's surface
(The Royal Society of Chemistry & Owner Societies, 2007)The Montreal Protocol is working. Concentrations of major ozone-depleting substances in the atmosphere are now decreasing, and the decline in total column amounts seen in the 1980s and 1990s at mid-latitudes has not ... -
Climate augmentation of erythemal UV-B radiation dose damage in the tropics and global change
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2007-12-10)Skin cancer (UV carcinogenesis) causing erythemal solar ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation dosages received at tropical latitudes are about five times higher compared to mid-latitudes. The tropical environment also experiences ... -
Ultra-violet radiation-cured biofiber composites from kenaf: The effect of montmorillonite on the flexural and impact properties
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-04)Biofiber composites, cured by ultra-violet (UV) radiation were produced using kenaf fibers as the reinforcing agent and unsaturated polyester as the matrix. This research work focused on the effects of the incorporation ...
