UNEP Environmental Effects of Ozone Depletion: Executive Summary
B radiation despite the fact that they have partial protection from mycosporine amino acids, which they take up with their food. Corals have been known to be directly affected by solar UV; in addition, photosynthesis in their symbiotic algae is impaired, resulting in reduced organic carbon supply. All of the previous studies on UV penetration into the water column ...
