EL INDICE UV SOBRE PLANOS INCLINADOS
Resumen
En 1995 la International Commission on NonIonizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) en colaboración con la World Health Organizationb (WHO), la World Meteorological Organization (WMO) y el United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) elaboraron una serie de recomendaciones redefiniendo el Índice de radiación ultravioleta (UV Index) (1). De acuerdo con estas directrices la WMO (2) recomienda que el Índice UV deba estar definido como un parámetro físico promediado biológicamente utilizando el espectro de acción definido por la CIE (3, 4). La radiación UV ponderada con esta curva que representa la respuesta de la piel humana al eritema o quemadura solar se denomina radiación UV eritemática (UVER) o eritemáticamente activa.Citas
