UV monitoring has been performed by the Engineering Research Institute at the University of Iceland since June of 1991. The measurements cover 250-800 nm with one nm increment. They are performed automatically during at least April to October with a longest time interval of one hour. Iceland is a member of the Nordic Ozone Group ( NOG ) which coordinates research activities on ozone and ultra- violet radiation in the Scandinavian countries. The Meteorological Office in Iceland operates all of the instruments and cooperates actively with other international groups including the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Greece and INTA in Madrid, Spain
There is also a Dobson instrument (#50) operating in Reykjavik since 1957. Surface ozone has also been measured by the Met. Office since 1991.
The Icelandic Meteorological Office collaborates with the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece in ozone and UV monitoring. The Met Office also collaborates with INTA in Madrid, Spain in ozone monitoring (RASAS spectrometer and ozone sondes) during the wintertime.
