UVB: Ultraviolet Radiation Ki Park Andrea Carroll Bryson Loughmiller Octabio Garcia
Hypotheses and Tests • UVB intensity will increase with altitude • Different materials will block out different amounts of UVB
Background • UVB-Why should you care? • UVB rays – Shorter wavelength, higher frequency • Units-mW/m2 • UVB sensor • Sensor issues
Conclusion • Saturation proved wrong • Different materials generally block out 95% of UVB rays • UVB intensity increases gradually with altitude
