Following the rapid developments in the UV-B measurement techniques
and the rapidly growing research in the field in the late 80's and
early 90's, we organized a large gathering of distinguished experts
in a NATO Advanced Study Institute, held in Halkidiki, Greece on
October, 2-11. 1995. The Institute was organized so as to include
state of the art lectures on most aspects of solar ultraviolet
radiation and its effects. This was achieved by extended lectures
and discussions given in five sessions by 27 lecturers and a
demonstration of filed measurements and calibration techniques at
the end of the Institute. The ASI began with the sun and
fundamentals on solar radiative emissions and their variability in
time and continued with the interaction of solar Ultraviolet with
the atmosphere through the complex scattering processes and
photochemical reactions involved. Particular emphasis was given to
changes in atmospheric composition imposed by different
manifestations of the solar activity cycle. as well as on the
modelling of radiative transfer through the atmosphere and the
ocean under variable environmental conditions. Overviews on the
ozone issue. its monitoring and variability were extensively
discussed with emphasis on the observed acceleration of ozone
decline in the early 90's. This acceleration had as a consequence,
significant increases in UV-B radiation observed at a few
world-wide distributed stations.
