Plant physiological responses to UV-B radiation - (2012, background): “…last few decades, there has been considerable concern over the depletion of stratospheric ozone as a result of anthropogenic pollutants such as halogenated hydrocarbons and other ozone depleting chemicals reaching the stratosphere (Molina and Rowland, 1974; Rowland, 1996; Madronich et al., 1998).”
Human skin pigmentation as an adaptation to UV radiation (2010, background): “Differences in the strength, seasonal distribution, and bioactivity of UVA and UVB have been recognized for a long time (58, 59), but the relevance of these variables to the evolution of human skin pigmentation has not been fully appreciated.”

Review: an embryo's eye view of avian eggshell pigmentation (2011, background): “…(but also melanins and carotenoids) perform this function and likely play an important role in protecting organisms from increased UV-B levels at the earth’s surface and potential tissue and DNA damage (Kerr and Mcelroy 1993, Blaustein et al. 1994, Madronich et al. 1998, Ries et al. 2000).”
The Evolution of Human Skin and Skin Color (2004, background): “UVR levels at the Earth’s surface are affected by latitude, altitude, season, moisture content, cloud cover, the depth of the ozone column, orbital parameters, and other factors (Hitchcock 2001, Madronich et al. 1998).”
Molecular Mechanisms of Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced DNA Damage and Repair (2010, background): “, UV-A: 315–400 nm; UVB: 280–315 nm; UV-C: <280 nm) UV-B radiation produces adverse effects on diverse habitats, even though most of the extraterrestrial UV-B is absorbed by the stratospheric ozone [12].”
