Five UV channels centered at: 305, 312, 320, 340 and 380 nm (10nm FWHM) - PAR (400-700 nm) - Stabilized temperature: 40 ºC - Total ozone, biological UV doses rate and cloud optical depth are obtained on a routine basis based on Dahlback’s algorithms (Dahlback, 1996) Quality Control (Instituto Nacional de Meteorología, INM) - Two 100-W working lamps every 15 days and one control lamp every month Quality Assurance (Finnish Meteorological Institute, FMI) - Traveling reference NILU-UV6 transfers calibration factors from the absolute reference spectroradiometer by direct comparison with the instruments at Ushuaia and Marambio twice a year. The NILU-UV6 from Belgrano is replaced every year by another instrument previously calibrated at the Izaña Observatory.
