3764 2018-10-25 Lab none Installed Mayberry PAR Sensor Incoming Installed at MB in the incoming position to replace sn 10162, which was brought back to the lab for repair/calibration.
4533 2018-09-28 Lab none Calibration Lab none Calibrated in the lab by sticking it out the south-facing window in Hilgard 205 with the reference sensor sn 161073. The factory calibration was 5.16 µV/(µmol/m2·s) and the new calibration was 5.59 µV/(µmol/m2·s). For details see the RT report "PAR comparison 09-2018" https://nature.berkeley.edu/biometlab/bmetdata/rtreport.php?screen=view&id=14
3716 2018-09-24 Lab none Repair Lab none Trimmed old cable, soldered on ~10m cable, and secured cable-sensor junction with small L-bracket and zip-ties.
3004 2017-08-25 Tonzi-Tower Removed Lab none Removed from Tonzi Tower. This sensor has been reading high for a long time. The cable is decayed and the sensor needs to be re-calibrated. This sensor was entered into the database.
5159 2004-04-30 Lab none Installed Tonzi PAR Sensor Incoming Cal Installed on the radiation boom in the incoming position for inter-comparison with the existing Licor Quantum sensor.
4535 1999-02-09 Factory none Calibration Factory none Initial factory calibration 5.16 uV/(umol/m2/s).
