Clouds reduce average monthly erythemal UV radiation doses by 20 to 40% (Fig. 5.12) and this attenuation is fairly constant throughout the year.

For example, accounting for the influence of aerosols on the amount of UV radiation reaching the surface of the earth is difficult, as is accounting for sulfur dioxide from volcanic and anthropogenic sources, although Fioletov et al. [27] reported that sulfur dioxide had a negligible influence on erythemal UV irradiance at 12 out of 13 Canadian and Japanese sites.
