PAR
PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation)
OceanLab has several PAR sensors (click here for equipment overview) that are recorded as auxhilary parameters on some of the CTD instruments. A PAR sensor is installed on the profiling frame at the Munkholmen site, and at two depths on the side of the buoy at the Ingdalen site.
