Irradiance, Ultraviolet-B, Turbidity, Single Scattering Albedo

Scientific paper

UV-B solar irradiance and meteorological variables were measured at the C.I.B.A. site (Low Atmosphere Research Laboratory), University of Valladolid, Spain, between January 2003 and March 2006. Calculated Ångström turbidity and aerosol optical thickness values were evaluated from the direct downward irradiance, surface pressure, air temperature and relative humidity values. Monthly turbidity [beta] values for an average year showed minimum values in winter and maximum values in summer. The obtained values are according to an aerosol standard atmosphere between mean and clean continental model. UV-B model calculations were performed using a radiative transfer tropospheric model, TUV 4.1a; measured and calculated UV-B irradiance values were compared in order to establish possible values of single scattering albedo. The results show that calculated single scattering albedo values are according to an aerosol standard atmosphere between mean and polluted continental model.
