Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR): WET Labs. ECO PAR. (CP01CNSP-00004)

The ECO-PAR™ sensor, which equipped with quality precision optics and proven Bio-wiper™ technology, it can be deployed for extended periods without a reduction in data quality caused by biofouling. Additionally, the ECO-PAR™ has optional internal data logging and power capabilities, precluding the need for an external logging device. It provides highly accurate measurements of PAR (400–700 nm) in all aquatic environments.A Photosynthetically Available Radiation (PAR) sensor is used to measure the spectral range of light that is available in the water column for use by primary producers for photosynthesis (400-700 nanometers). Relative depth: Sea surface to 2m above bottom. Location: 40.23, -71.3, Surface Piercing Profiler; Design Depth: 0 to 100 meters
