Scintillometer

|| RPG-MWSC-160

In 2014 Radiometer Physics GmbH (RPG) released the first commercially available microwave scintillometer RPG-MWSC-160. It was designed for combined operation with an optical Large Aperture Scintillometer (LAS) to observe sensible and latent heat fluxes at the same time.

Applications

Measurement of sensible heat flux ???? and evapotranspiration (latent heat flux LvE) significant for:

  • Irrigation
  • Water management
  • Hydrology
  • Forest fire warning
  • Weather forecasting
  • Radiation budget studies


Available data formats

  • Signal (co-)variances
  • Structure parameters
  • Correlation coefficient RTQ
  • Heat fluxes ????, LvE.
  • Weather station data
  • Housekeeping data
