21146 | 7901106 | 7901106 | FloatInfo | HOT_342 | 2023-05-30 | test | test float, six-sensor APEX with OCR504 sn 2254 ( new params DOWN_IRRAD380, DOWN_IRRAD443, DOWN_IRRAD490,DOWNWELL_PAR). Note that unfortunately the CHLA sensor on this float is not working properly. Also, current OCR channels include 380, 443, 490 nm, plus PAR. PAR will be replaced with 555nm eventually on future floats (plot below showing the 3 irradiance channels) |
