Infrared Thermometer Plant Canopy Temperature. Has an accuracy of 02C when the target temperature is within 20C of the sensor body temperature. Purpose Built for Plant Science Applications. Angle of an infrared thermometer IRT it may be useful to measure the canopy temperature inside the chamber by infrared thermometry Garcia et al 1995. Use to determine leaf temperature and plant stress caused by irrigation problems.
Has an accuracy of 02C when the target temperature is within 20C of the sensor body temperature. Includes 9V battery wrist strap and case. When I first used my infrared thermometer to measure leaf temperatures I discovered that in grow phase and under single-ended metal halide grow bulbs leaf surface temperature or LST was within 13 degrees of ambient grow room temperature measured at canopy level. The infrared thermometer integrates thermal radiation emitted by the foliage included in its field of view. This is really pushing the research envelope Barnes has another cooperative researcher using a spider sprayer outfitted with an infrared thermometer sensors that can measure crop reflectance a small. An infrared thermometer IRT gives an average temperature of plant canopy surface within the sensors field of view FOV.
An excellent tool for measuring the temperature of turf and plant canopies.
Angle of an infrared thermometer IRT it may be useful to measure the canopy temperature inside the chamber by infrared thermometry Garcia et al 1995. Canopy temperature is measured remotely by the infrared thermometer IRT see the detailed theory. Payero and Irmak 2006. Use to determine leaf temperature and plant stress caused by irrigation problems. Delivers a continuous stream of temperature data from the entire field of view not just data from a single leaf. Moller et al 2007.
