Abstract
The ultraviolet (UV) component of the solar electromagnetic spectrum plays an important role in the terrestrial nature. Many biological effects on human beings are ascribed to the UV, and the incidence of such radiation depends on many geophysical and meteorological parameters. In this work we assess the relationship between the erythemal dose rate and the meteorological parameters of surface air temperature and cloud cover in Belo Horizonte (19.92° S, 43.94° W, 858 m asl, Brazil).
