Penetration of Ultraviolet Radiation in the Marine Environment. A Review
Abstract
UV radiation (UVR) is a significant ecological factor in the marine environment that can have important effects on planktonic organisms and dissolved organic matter (DOM). The penetration of UVR into the water column is likely to change in the near future due to interactions between global warming and ozone depletion. In this study we report underwater instruments employed for the measurement of UVR and we review data dealing with the depth of UVR penetration in different oceanic areas including the open ocean, Antarctic waters and coastal waters. We provide the 10% irradiance depth (Z10%) for UV‐A and UV‐B as well as for DNA damage effective dose (DNA), which we calculated from the values of diffuse attenuation coefficients or vertical profiles reported in the literature. We observe a clear distinction between open ocean (high Z10%, no variation in the ratio UV‐B/UV‐A), Antarctic waters (increase in the ratio UV‐B/UV‐A during ozone hole conditions) and coastal waters (low Z10%, no variation in the ratio W‐B/UV‐A). These variations in the penetration of WR could lead to differences in the relative importance of photobiologicaVphotochemical processes. We also compare in this study the penetration of UV‐B (unweighted and weighted by the Setlow action spectrum) and DNA damage effective dose.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
