Maybe we don't know the composition of the radiation on Mars precisely enough?

i've never thought about, but i don't recall any of the other probes/rovers reporting back on things like UVA/UVB or anything else like that. However, with no atmosphere or the Martian equivalent to Van Allen belts, wouldn't it be safe to assume that whatever streams out of the sun is reaching the surface? it would be a matter of intensity on the surface vs what type would it not?
