Abstract
DAILY records of the intensity of the ultra-violet radiation were made in Huddersfield between 1925 and 1928 by the acetone methylene-blue method.1 While as a quantitative method this only gives approximate values, comparisons may be made in a qualitative way. The figures obtained here have now been analysed for weekly variations. Since this is one of the very few so-called smoky towns in which such records have been taken, the results may be of wider interest.
