The LI-COR Plant Canopy Analyzer is an in situ instrument manufactured by LI-COR for leaf area index (LAI) measurements. It measures diffuse sky radiation passing through the canopy at five zenith angles to determine LAI and other canopy characteristics. It can be used under most sky conditions and across canopy types, including row crops, grasslands, isolated trees, and forests. The optical sensor within the Plant Canopy Analyzer has a wavelength range of 320-490 nm. It has a field of view of 148 degrees and an operating temperature range of -20 to 50 degrees Celsius.
