Data are given on t he intensity of the b iologically effe ctive ultraviolet radiation, of wavelengths 3200 A and shorter, from t h e sun and t he entire sky, incident on a horizontal plane, under various meteorological condit ions, in high latitudes. These data were secured by means of a photoelectric cell and automatic recording app aratus, whereby a continuous record of ultraviolet intensities, in absolute value, was obtained during the voyage of t he Louise A. Boyd Ar ctic Expedition, up the west coast of Greenland to Etah (lat. 78.3° N) and down the coast of Baffin Land and Labrador.The ou tstanding results of this survey are, t hat, for the same solar h eights, in the highest latitudes visited (78° N) the ultraviolet intensit ies appear to b e somewhat higher than in latitude 62° N , but somewhat lower than in latit ude 39° N (Washington), in agreement with expectat ion, taking into consideration the distribution of ozone in the stratosphere with lat it ude and t he season . I n the highest latitudes, at the noon hour, on the clear est days, in mid-summer, th e intensity of the ultraviolet solar and sky radiat ion ranged from 30 to 40
