dc.description.abstract Pretoria receives a fair amount of solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Certain meteorological factors affect the amount of solar UVR that reaches the ground. The most dominant influencing meteorological factors are stratospheric ozone, cloud cover and solar zenith angle. In this paper the following relationships were investigated: solar UVR and cloud cover, solar UVR and solar zenith angle and solar UVR and total column ozone over Pretoria for 2012. The difference between the satellite-based and ground-based solar UVR values was also considered. This study provided insight into the intensity of solar UVR and various influencing factors at various times of the year. en_US
