Instrument: LI-COR LI-190SA PAR Sensor

Acronym: LI-COR LI-190SA PAR
External Identifier: skos:closeMatch: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L22/current/TOOL0193/

Description

The LI-190SA Quantum Sensor is used to accurately measure (non-aquatic) Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) in the range of 400-700 nm. Colored glass filters are used to tailor the silicon photodiode response to the desired quantum response. The LI-190SA is also used as a reference sensor for comparison to underwater PAR measured by the LI-192SA or LI-193 Underwater Quantum Sensors.

Photosynthetically-active radiation (PAR) from R/V Kaiyo-Maru cruise KY0103-01 and KY0103-02 in the Northwestern Sub-Arctic Pacific in 2001 (SEEDS I project)LiCor LI-190SA Cosine Collector
PAR data from Virginia Aquarium Climate Change Facility, Virginia Beach VA; 2011-2015 (Impact of Climate on Eelgrass project)Photosynthetically Active Radiation data were recorded using factory calibrated LI-COR LI- 90 quantum irradiance sensors placed at 4 locations around the tanks to characterize the full sunlight regime incident on each tank. Data were recorded at 10 minute intervals using a LI-1000 programmable data logger from 18 April to 3 October 2013. Subsequently, data were recorded using the NI data logger and LabView software system used for temperature and pH. Sensor inter-calibration was performed on site using a series of neutral density filters. LI-COR LI-190SA PAR
