I can vouch from personal experience the link between low ozone values
and increased uv having just returned from the Antarctic.  When I left
the UK in early November data was suggesting that the ozone hole was
nearly over.  Whilst carrying out cargo work at Port Lochroy on a day
with much cirrostratus and thin altostratus most of the ship's company
suffered sun-burn to a greater or lesser extent, even those wearing
blocking cream.  A subsequent radiosonde flight revealed low
stratospheric temperatures suggesting that the ozone hole had returned
and on my return to the UK inspection of satellite imagery showed that
the ozone hole was over the area at the time.
