Plant Canopy Cover Sensor
The AccuPAR is a lightweight, portable photosythetically active
radiation (PAR) sensor wand that lets you measure canopy PAR
interception at any location within a crop or forest canopy.
PAR data can be used with other climate data to estimate biomass
production without destroying the crop. PAR is also important in
determining other canopy processes, like radiation interception,
energy conversion, momentum, gas exchange, precipitation
interception and evapotranspiration.
Leaf Porometer
The SC-1 Leaf Porometer is a lightweight, menu-driven instrument
for measuring stomatal conductance. It does this by putting a
leaf in series with two known conductance elements and comparing
the humidity measurements between them.
Spectral Reflectance Sensor
The Spectral Reflectance Sensor (SRS) is intended for continuous
monitoring of the
Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) or the Photochemical
Reflectance Index (PRI) of plant canopies.
