Spectrometer System

Caption

The spectrometer system mounted atop a tower in a subalpine conifer forest at Niwot Ridge, Colorado, collected data between June 2017 and June 2018. The scientists compared the solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) measured by the system to the physiological changes inside the conifer needles to better understand why we see SIF seasonal cycles.
