From the Paper:

"Very simply, sunburn and UV light, or, more specifically, Ultra Violet Radiation (UVR), and especially UV-B radiation can damage your skin, and this damage can lead to skin cancer. There are of course other determining factors, including your heredity and the environment you live in. However, both the total amount of sun received over the years, and overexposure resulting in sunburn can cause skin cancer."
