Dataset containing mean, maximum, minimum and standard deviation values for photosynthetically active radiation expressed as photon irradiance. Values are summaries of 12 consecutive readings acquired once every 5 s. The data set covers 17 consecutive days.

Usage

ppfd_LICOR.data

Format

A data frame with 24479 rows and 5 variables.

Details

The variables are as follows:

  • time_EEST POSIXct Local time according to EET coordinates.

  • UTC POSIXct Local time according to UTC.

  • ppfd_mean numeric (umol m-2 m-2)

  • ppfd_min numeric (umol m-2 m-2)

  • ppfd_max numeric (umol m-2 m-2)

  • ppfd_sd numeric (umol m-2 m-2)

These data are part of a much larger data set (Aphalo, 2023). Instrument used: LI-COR LI-190 quantum sensor, mounted on permanent tripod at approximately 2 m height. Data collected with a Campbell Scientific CR6 datalogger. Sensor connected through a LI-COR millivolt adaptor (604 ohm). Wavelength sensitivity range of the quantum sensor is 400 nm to 700 nm. Location: Viikki campus of the University of Helsinki. Coordinates: 60.226803 N, 25.019205 E.
