Abstract
This work presents the climatology of the sulphur dioxide column over Thessaloniki derived from three years of observation with the Brewer spectrophotometer. The column averages 2.5 m atm‐cm and the shielding of UV‐B by is investigated and compared with the changes in shielding resulting from an anticipated ozone reduction. Columnar and surface SO concentrations over Thessaloniki appear to be typical of those in major industrial‐urban regions of the world. It is concluded that, for urban regions, predictions of changes in UV‐B as a result of man's activities must consider projections of changes in the SO column as well as ozone. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
