Capturing the Color
To capture the shade of our Island sunshine, we looked to Héctor J. Jiménez, Ph.D., a physicist at the University of Puerto Rico in Mayagüez. Through a series of models and calculations, Dr. Jiménez measured everything from the sun’s temperature to its movements around the Island throughout the day.
“Puerto Rico’s constant breeze continuously cleans the atmosphere of smog and other polluting gasses, allowing the sunlight to shine through the atmosphere and reach the Island in a purer state.”
