From the calculated ozone loss [#]_ and the calculated total

ozone column one can estimate the UV index [#]_. The UV Index is

maximum at noon-time with a clear sky, shown here on the third panel.

The typical development of the UV index over the time and the hypothetical

influence of ozone loss on that quantity, can be seen in the diagrams `here`_.
