Daily variation of UV-A and UV-B solar radiation on the Adriatic Sea.
During the summer months, from June thru September, in Opatija and island of Rab area, we conducted UVA and UVB measurements using a professional detector: Solar Light Co., Inc. USA. Ordering: PMA2110 UV-A and PMA2101 UV-B detector. We conducted global UVA and UVB measurements in the 2006 to 2011 period. Results of the measurements show June to September daily, 10 am to 3 pm, UVA and UVB variations to be above allowed values especially in the maritime area. The measurements were performed in cooperation with "Dr. B. Vojniković" Daily eye clinic and the University of Applied Sciences Velika Gorica, Velika Gorica, Croatia.
