The results of ground-based spectral measurements with a double monochromator of solar UV irradiance in the Arctic were used to derive the atmospheric ozone content. The double monochromator allowed separation of the diffuse and direct components of the radiation, and the global (i.e., direct plus diffuse) irradiance. The column density of atmospheric ozone derived by fitting calculated UV irradiances to the measurements were shown to be in basic agreement with the ozone amounts inferred by a nearby Dobson spectrometer, demonstrating the feasibility of determining simultaneously the atmospheric ozone abundances and the UV radiation transmitted through the atmosphere. It is suggested that a combination of UV measurements and appropriate radiative transfer modeling be used to assess the effects of other environmental parameters, such as clouds, aerosols, and ground albedo, on the transimitted UV irradiance.
