j@1040: Ozone loss, ozone column and UV index j@1040: ===================================== j@1040: j@1040: From the calculated ozone loss [#]_ and the calculated total j@1040: ozone column one can estimate the UV index [#]_. The UV Index is j@1040: maximum at noon-time with a clear sky, shown here on the third panel. j@1040: The black line on all maps mark the edge of the polar vortex at 17 km altitude. j@1040: One can navigate to a different date by clicking on the arrows (prev/next) j@1040: The typical development of the UV index over the time and the hypothetical j@1040: influence of ozone loss on that quantity, can be seen in the diagrams 'here'. j@1040: j@1040: j@1040: .. _here: /ozoneloss/uvi j@1040: ..
