Zeng, J., Z. Jin, and K.H. Stamnes, 1993: Impact of stratospheric ozone depletion on UV penetration into the ocean at high latitudes. In High Latitude Optics, 27 June-2 July 1993, Tromso, Norway, Proc. SPIE, vol. 2048, pp. 56-63, doi:10.1117/12.165510.
The effect of ozone depletion on penetration of UVB radiation through the atmosphere and into an aquatic system is investigated with the use of a newly developed radiation model pertinent for the coupled atmosphere-ocean system. The atmosphere and underlying water are each divided into a sufficient number of horizontal layers to resolve the changes in model accounts for all orders of multiple scattering and the change in index of refraction across the air-water interface. The penetration of UVB radiation into the aquatic system is examined by assuming "normal" ozone abundance, taken to be 350 DU, and about 30% reduction from normal (250 DU), at 70°N. The effect of ozone depletion on the UVB penetration into the water is more pronounced in early spring than in summer. The UVB enhancements are up to 36% at the earth surface and 33% 10 meters below the sea surface on April 1 at 70°N as a consequence of ozone depletion from normal level to 250 DU.
