Although there are some biological processes that are supported by
UV radiation, most organisms are stressed by it in various ways,
e.g. through DNA damage.
Top international experts present an integrated overview of UV
radiation and its effects on terrestrial, freshwater and marine
Arctic biota. Increased stratospheric ozone depletion and the
corresponding increase in ground levels of UV radiation as well as
ambient, "natural" UV radiation as a key ecological factor in the
Arctic spring and summer are discussed in detail. Additionally,
basic information on Arctic ecosystems is given. The volume
provides not only an excellent account of present-day knowledge of
the subject, but also describes the state of the art on which
future research can be built.
