monitoring stations with primarily
broadband instruments. The site is updated daily and supplies daily
values from each instrument.

 | Daily UV Index for Australia for different parts of the country supplied by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology.
This site is updated daily.
|
 | NOAA's SurfRad program monitors surface radiation
including UV at six sites in the U.S. The data are
available from this site, updated daily.
|
 | The National Science Foundation has a network of seven spectral
radiometers throughout the world. Data and summaries are available from this site
which is updated periodically.
|
 | The U.S. EPA, together with the National Park Service,
