Abrupt declines in tropospheric nitrogen dioxide over China after the outbreak of COVID-19.

TL;DR: In this article, a 48% drop in tropospheric nitrogen dioxide vertical column densities from the 20 days averaged before the 2020 Lunar New Year to the 20 nights averaged after.

Surface erythemal UV irradiance in the continental United States derived from ground-based and OMI observations: quality assessment, trend analysis and sampling issues

TL;DR: In this paper, surface full-sky erythemal dose rate (EDR) from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) at both satellite overpass time and local noon time is evaluated against ground measurements at 31 sites from the US Department of Agriculture's (USDA) UV-B Monitoring and Research Program (UVMRP) over the period of 2005-2017.

UV index climatology over North America from ground-based and satellite estimates

TL;DR: In this article, the long-term monthly mean UV index values for Canada and the United States were calculated using information from two sources: from noon erythemal UV estimated from Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) total ozone and reflectivity data and from UV index value derived from observations of global solar radiation, total ozone, dew point, and snow cover.
Journal ArticleDOI

Revised and extended benchmark results for Rayleigh scattering of sunlight in spherical atmospheres

TL;DR: In this article, the full-spherical RT code MYSTIC (Monte Carlo) and the plane-parallel RT code VLIDORT (discrete ordinates) were corrected for atmospheric sphericity in the single and multiple scattering.
