attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_0_dataset_instrument_description	String	Photosynthetically Available Radiation, PAR (400-700nm). Cosine irradiance (EsPAR) sensors collect light impinging on a Teflon-coated diffuser and the response is proportional to the cosine of the angle of incidence.
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_0_dataset_instrument_nid	String	4176
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_0_description	String	A PAR sensor measures photosynthetically available (or active) radiation. The sensor measures photon flux density (photons per second per square meter) within the visible wavelength range (typically 400 to 700 nanometers). PAR gives an indication of the total energy available to plants for photosynthesis. This instrument name is used when specific type, make and model are not known.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_1_acronym	String	Radiometer
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_1_dataset_instrument_description	String	Biospherical Instruments GUV-500 is a 5-channel reference radiometer which typically measures cosine-corrected down welling irradiance at 305, 320, 340, 380nm. Biospherical Instruments QSR250 system measures a single channel of scalar irradiance (PAR) and is appropriate for applications independent of the directionality of the light field, such as measurements of the flux available for photosynthesis.
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_1_dataset_instrument_nid	String	4177
attribute	NC_GLOBAL	instruments_1_description	String	Radiometer is a generic term for a range of instruments used to measure electromagnetic radiation (radiance and irradiance) in the atmosphere or the water column. For example, this instrument category includes free-fall spectral radiometer (SPMR/SMSR System, Satlantic, Inc), profiling or deck cosine PAR units (PUV-500 and 510, Biospherical Instruments, Inc). This is a generic term used when specific type, make and model were not specified.

attribute	NC_GLOBAL	projects_0_description	String	The fundamental objectives of United States Global Ocean Ecosystems Dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC) Program are dependent upon the cooperation of scientists from several disciplines. Physicists, biologists, and chemists must make use of data collected during U.S. GLOBEC field programs to further our understanding of the interplay of physics, biology, and chemistry. Our objectives require quantitative analysis of interdisciplinary data sets and, therefore, data must be exchanged between researchers. To extract the full scientific value, data must be made available to the scientific community on a timely basis.
