According to a new study published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, the ozone isn’t healing as quickly as expected, leading to higher levels of surface ultraviolet (UV) radiation in recent years.

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. — UV Resources announced that its Upper-Room UVGI systems have been certified by Intertek to meet UL-2998, a zero-ozone verification standard. The UL-2998 standard reaches beyond ...

Many of us look forward to summer for the opportunities to get outdoors. Too much outdoors can hurt in certain situations. Aside from stormy weather and lightning, rip currents and tropical storms, ...

Pine trees become temporarily sterile when exposed to ultraviolet radiation as intense as some scientists believe the Earth experienced 252 million years ago during the planet's largest mass ...

Ozone depletion in the stratosphere continues to affect not only ultraviolet (UV) radiation levels at the Earth’s surface but also climate across the Southern Hemisphere, an international study ...

UV radiation is a part of something that you may faintly remember from your K-12 or collegiate years called the electromagnetic spectrum (below). Electromagnetic energy propagates in wave form and ...

And now for a spot of good news: the protective layer of ozone continues to heal, with the hole in our stratospheric shield having shrunk to a smaller size in 2024 than in the period between 2020-2023 ...

Thin film deposition is crucial across industries like semiconductors, photovoltaics, and optics, where achieving high-quality films hinges on effective surface preparation. Contaminants such as ...
