1 Ozone loss, ozone column and UV index
2 =====================================
4 From the calculated ozone loss [#]_ and the calculated total
5 ozone column one can estimate the UV index [#]_. The UV Index is
6 maximum at noon-time with a clear sky, shown here on the third panel.
7 The black line on all maps mark the edge of the polar vortex at 17 km altitude.
8 One can navigate to a different date by clicking on the arrows (prev/next)
9 The typical development of the UV index over the time and the hypothetical
10 influence of ozone loss on that quantity, can be seen in the diagrams `here`_.
