摘要
Solar ultraviolet radiation reaching the ground can be reduced due to light scattering of atmospheric aerosols. Aerosol pollution has led to the decrease in biological active UV-B radiation by about 45% and 10% in city and rural areas, respectively. In populated areas, effect of aerosol scattering on UV-B radiation may offset the increased amount of UV-B caused by ozone depletion, but in clean areas such as two poles, ozone depletion may have great damage effects on ecosystems.
