Indoor calibration method for UV index meters with a solar simulator and a reference spectroradiometer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Metrology and Quality Engineering, 2016
We present a calibration method of UV index meters under a solar simulator based on a spectroradiometer as reference. The reference spectroradiometer is a double-grating-based type that can measure the erythemal effective irradiance ...

Measuring the Luminance Contrast Sensitivity Function in Peripheral Vision

open access: yesColor Research &Application, EarlyView.
Luminance contrast detection thresholds of frequencies at eccentricities for a person. ABSTRACT We measured luminance contrast sensitivity functions (CSF) of four subjects by using Gabor stimuli up to 56°, 49°, 84°, and 63° in the nasal, superior, temporal, and inferior directions, respectively, of the left‐eye visual field.

Use of Reflectance Measurements for the Detection of N, P, K, ADF and NDF Contents in Sainfoin Pasture

open access: yesSensors, 2008
The objective of this study was to determine the relationships between nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (P), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) contents of sainfoin (Onobrychis sativa Lam.) pasture and canopy reflectance.

New Spectroradiometers Complying with the NDSC Standards [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2006
Abstract The investigation of the effect of solar ultraviolet (UV) and visible radiation on biological organisms and photochemical reactions requires spectral measurements of the desired radiation parameters of high accuracy. The Network for the Detection of Stratospheric Change (NDSC) and the World Meteorological Organization have set ...

An investigation into the interaction between water deficit and injury of sugarcane borer (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) in the gas exchange parameters and spectral reflectance of sugarcane

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are subject to a variety of stressors that will eventually limit their development and yield. However, analysis of the combination of abiotic and biotic stresses is usually disregarded. The combination of stresses can have synergistic or antagonistic effects and, therefore, they require greater clarification for assertive ...

Upscaling key ecosystem functions across the conterminous United States by a water-centric ecosystem model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We developed a water-centric monthly scale simulation model (WaSSI-C) by integrating empirical water and carbon flux measurements from the FLUXNET network and an existing water supply and demand accounting model (WaSSI).
