Daily erythemal radiation validation of satellite retrievals using 14 ground-based stations in both hemispheres

The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI), on board the NASA EOS Aura spacecraft, provides a global view of the daily erythemal radiation (UVER). The purpose of this study is to validate the remote sensing retrievals of UVER with an inter-comparison with measurements at 14 ground-based stations distributed worldwide between 43oN and 64oS in 5 different countries of both hemispheres: Argentine, Australia, Italy, Israel, and Spain.
