MEASUREMENT OF SOLAR UVB RADIATION USING AL2O3:C DOSIMETERS IN CITY OF IZMIR

Öz

It is well known that UV radiation has a significant effect on our ecologic system. The risks that may be caused by the increases in ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching the earth’s surface due to the depletion of stratospheric ozone have been studied by many researchers. Although UVB radiation consists only a small fraction of the global solar UV radiation, it causes harmful effects on human, animal and plant. Furthermore, UVB may have several adverse effects on living organism in terrestrial and sea ecosystem. The aim of this work is to investigate the usability of thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs) in measuring the solar UVB radiation. TLDs have some superior characteristics such as their availability, being cheap and easy to use. In this study, we used Al2O3:C thermoluminescence dosimeters for measuring the UVB radiation, They are very sensitive to low ionizing radiation doses and UVB radiation. The daily exposures of the ground surface UVB radiation were periodically measured using aluminium oxide dosimeters. The measurements were taken from 09:00 to 16:00 in each study day. Obtained results were observed to be consistent with the UV data received from Ege University, Solar Energy Institute.
