The objective of the present investigation was to find the behavior of the maximum events of solar radiation in the city of Quito, the relation with the stratospheric solar activity and the terrestrial solar radiation, including data of cases of cancer in the skin and ocular affections related to the overexposure of solar radiation. Using available information from 10 years of global solar radiation data provided by the Secretary of Environment, 6 weather stations. We analyzed the behavior of daily maximum values and their trend at monthly and annual levels. Solar radiation data was compared to the number of sunspots provided by NOAA, as well as the number of solar flares taken from NASA's Fermi satellite. The data on diseases associated with the overexposure of solar radiation were provided by the National Data Archive of the INEC. The results show a positive and sustained trend of maximum solar radiation events at monthly and annual levels in all stations studied. It also shows a correlation with the number of solar cells and a low correlation with solar flares, evidence that the magnetosphere diverts most of the energy from these, being isolated events that do not necessarily coincide with the hours of greater solar radiation. On the other hand, it is seen that ophthalmological diseases are increasing, not just skin diseases that show a slight decline, thanks to the campaigns of skin care to solar overexposure. |
