Personal ultraviolet-B dosimetry at Koldewey-Station by using an electronic dosimeter ELUV-14 (scientific note)

摘要

Personal exposure of ultraviolet-B irradiance (UV-B) was measured by small portable dosimeter (ELUV-14) at Koldewey-Station in Ny-Ålesund, from May 15 to August 15,1999. While ten persons carried those dosimeters global irradiance was simultaneously measured by a UV-B spectral radiometer. The highest erythemal weighted global UV-B dose was 2200 J/m^2 recorded on June 8,1999. The personal related maximum value was about 345 J/m^2 on May 25,1999. This correponds to approximately 23% of the global dose recorded at the same day.
