SRRB Field Instrumentation
The basic function of a radiometer is to convert radiant energy to another form of energy (e. g., thermal, electrical) that can be measured. Instruments that measure solar and thermal infrared broadband radiation generally use thermal detectors, whereas the "spectral" instruments (MFRSR, UVB meter, and PAR) use photoelectric detectors. Descriptions and specifications of the radiometers used at SRRB are given below.
