Measurable Differences in UV Index

Lab Summary:

Faculty Advisor: Dr. Shidong Kan & Dr. Mevan Ranasinghe

Project Summary:

This project investigates the UV Index light during day hours in regards to UV Index. Using a SparkFun UV sensor, measure visible light intensities in irradiance (W/m2) at midday and in the afternoon. Hypothesis: UVA & UVB rays will be more intense at higher altitude than in lower altitude. Is there a measurable difference in UV Index in different locations on Oahu?
