ultraviolet radiation allowed to
penetrate through the upper atmosphere.
These sunscreens protect us from harmful
ultraviolet (UV)
radiation by absorbing rays before they
penetrate deep into our skin.

radiation, which can
penetrate tissue much better than higher energy
radiation such as
ultraviolet, as is often required with quantum dot labels.

ultraviolet radiation which due to it's intensity and frequency has the ability to
penetrate the more dense greenhouse gases such as CO2 and methane.
While Earth's lower atmosphere is about one percent water vapor (although it seems much higher in the humid Louisiana summers), the upper atmosphere, where
ultraviolet radiation can
penetrate, is very dry: a cold trap, a combination of pressure and temperature, prevents water vapor from rising high in the earth's atmosphere.
