Kizilskoe is a village, the administrative center of the Kizilsky district of the Chelyabinsk region of the Russian Federation (Ural District).
The village of Kizilskoye is located on the eastern slopes of the Southern Urals in the southern part of the region, on the right bank of the Ural River (basal. Caspian Sea) at the confluence of the river. Bolshoi Kizil, 324 km south-west of the regional center - Chelyabinsk and 92 km south of Magnitogorsk.

Transport links: by motor roads - highway P-361 Sibay-Kizilskoe-Magnitogorsk-Chelyabinsk and highway Kizilskoe-Bredy; by airlines and by rail (airport - 13 km, railway station - 22 km to the west in the city of Sibay of the Republic of Bashkortostan). The settlement was founded in 1743 as a military fortress, which was part of the Verkhnyayaitskaya line of fortresses, and from the 1840s - a Cossack village. Under Soviet rule (1926) it became the center of the Kizil region.

At present, the village of Kizilskoye - 6.7 thousand people. (2010), is the center of an agricultural region (cereals, dairy farming)
Economic potential: food industry enterprises, asphalt plant.

The sun is the source of life on the planet. Its rays provide the necessary light and warmth. At the same time, the ultraviolet radiation of the Sun is detrimental to all living things. To find a compromise between the beneficial and harmful properties of the sun, meteorologists calculate the index of ultraviolet radiation, which characterizes the degree of its danger.

What UV radiation from the Sun is

Ultraviolet radiation from the Sun has a wide range and is divided into three regions, two of which reach the Earth.

• UV-A. Long-wave range radiation
  315-400 nm

  The rays pass almost freely through all atmospheric "barriers" and reach the Earth.

• UV-B. Medium wavelength range
  280-315 nm

  The rays are 90% absorbed by the ozone layer, carbon dioxide and water vapor.

• UV-C. Shortwave range radiation
  100-280 nm

  The most dangerous area. They are completely absorbed by stratospheric ozone before reaching the Earth.

The more ozone, clouds and aerosols in the atmosphere, the less the harmful effects of the Sun. However, these saving factors have a high natural variability. The annual maximum of stratospheric ozone occurs in the spring, and the minimum in autumn. Cloudiness is one of the most variable characteristics of weather. Carbon dioxide content also changes all the time.

At what values \u200b\u200bof the UV index is there a danger

The UV Index gives an estimate of the amount of UV radiation from the Sun on the Earth's surface. UV Index values \u200b\u200brange from safe 0 to extreme 11+.

• 0 - 2 Low
• 3 - 5 Moderate
• 6 - 7 High
• 8 - 10 Very high
• 11+ Extreme

At mid-latitudes, the UV index approaches unsafe values \u200b\u200b(6–7) only at the maximum height of the Sun above the horizon (occurs in late June - early July). At the equator, the UV index reaches 9 ... 11+ points throughout the year.

Why the sun is useful

In small doses, the sun's UV radiation is essential. The sun's rays synthesize melanin, serotonin, vitamin D, which are necessary for our health, and prevent rickets.

Melanin creates a kind of protective barrier for skin cells from the harmful effects of the sun. Because of it, our skin darkens and becomes more elastic.

The hormone of happiness serotonin affects our well-being: it improves mood and increases overall vitality.

Vitamin D strengthens the immune system, stabilizes blood pressure and has antirachitic functions.

Why the sun is dangerous

Taking sun baths, it is important to understand that the line between beneficial and harmful Sun is very thin. Excessive tanning always borders on a burn. Ultraviolet radiation damages DNA in skin cells.

The body's defense system cannot cope with such an aggressive effect. It lowers immunity, damages the retina, causes skin aging and can lead to cancer.

Ultraviolet light destroys the DNA chain

How the sun affects people

Susceptibility to UV radiation depends on skin type. People of the European race are most sensitive to the Sun - for them protection is required already at index 3, and 6 is considered dangerous.

At the same time, for Indonesians and African Americans, this threshold is 6 and 8, respectively.

Who is most affected by the Sun

People with light
skin tone

People with many moles

Mid-latitude residents on holiday in the south

Winter lovers
fishing

Alpine skiers and climbers

People with a family history of skin cancer

In what weather is the sun more dangerous

It is a common misconception that the Sun is dangerous only in hot and clear weather. You can get burned in cool, cloudy weather.

Cloudiness, no matter how dense it may be, does not at all reduce the amount of ultraviolet radiation to zero. In mid-latitudes, cloudiness significantly reduces the risk of sunburn, which is not the case with traditional beach destinations. For example, in the tropics, if in sunny weather you can get sunburn in 30 minutes, then in cloudy weather - in a couple of hours.

How to protect yourself from the sun

To protect yourself from destructive rays, follow these simple rules:

Stay less in the Sun at noon hours

Wear light colored clothing, including wide brimmed hats

Use protective creams

Wear sunglasses

More shade on the beach

Which sunscreen to choose

Sunscreen varies in sun protection and is labeled from 2 to 50+. The numbers indicate the proportion of solar radiation that overcomes the protection of the cream and reaches the skin.

For example, when applying a cream labeled 15, only 1/15 (or 7%) of the UV rays will penetrate the protective film. In the case of cream 50 - only 1/50, or 2%, affect the skin.

Sunscreen creates a reflective layer on the body. At the same time, it is important to understand that no cream is capable of reflecting 100% of ultraviolet radiation.

For everyday use, when the time spent in the sun does not exceed half an hour, a cream with protection 15 is quite suitable. For sunbathing on the beach, it is better to take 30 or more. However, for light-skinned people it is recommended to use a cream labeled 50+.

How to apply sunscreen

The cream should be applied evenly to all exposed skin, including the face, ears and neck. If you plan to sunbathe long enough, then the cream should be applied twice: 30 minutes before going out and, additionally, before going to the beach.

Specify the required amount for application in the instructions of the cream.

How to apply sunscreen when swimming

Sunscreen should be applied every time you bathe. Water washes away the protective film and, reflecting the sun's rays, increases the dose of ultraviolet radiation received. Thus, when bathing, the risk of sunburn increases. However, due to the cooling effect, you may not feel the burn.

Excessive sweating and towel drying is also a reason to re-protect your skin.

It should be remembered that on the beach, even under an umbrella, the shade does not provide adequate protection. Sand, water and even grass reflect up to 20% of UV rays, increasing their effect on the skin.

How to protect your eyes

Sunlight bouncing off water, snow or sand can cause painful retinal burns. Use UV-filtered sunglasses to protect your eyes.

Danger to skiers and climbers

In the mountains, the atmospheric filter is thinner. For every 100 meters of altitude, the UV index increases by 5%.

Snow reflects up to 85% of UV rays. In addition, up to 80% of the ultraviolet reflected by the snow cover is again reflected by the clouds.

Thus, the Sun is most dangerous in the mountains. Protecting your face, lower chin and ears is essential even in cloudy weather.

How to deal with sunburn if you're burned

Sponge your body with a damp sponge to dampen the burn

Apply an anti-burn cream to the burned areas

If the temperature rises, consult a doctor, you may be advised to take an antipyretic

If the burn is severe (the skin is very swollen and blistering), seek medical attention
