β¦ Synopsis
An infrared device designed to measure simultaneous fluctuations of atmospheric CO* and water vapor concentrations is described. The measuring frequency is 30 Hz. The sensing path length is 20 cm. It is compatible with the path length of the standard type of a sonic anemometer. The noise level of the device is equivalent to fluctuations of about 0.8 ppm peak-to-peak for CO, and 0.02 g kg-' peak-to-peak for water vapor. Field tests have showed that the device is suitable for simultaneous measurement of turbulent fluxes of CO, and water vapor in conjunction with a sonic anemometer.
