| March 16, 2010 | Jason Hupp, Pat Morgan | Designing a Gas-Exchange Chamber: What should I consider? In this webinar we address some important considerations for designing chambers for gas-exchange measurements. The information presented will be particularly relevant to users looking to design custom chambers for the LI-6400XT or LI-8100, or those building gas exchange systems around any of LI-COR Biosciences stand alone gas analyzers. Topics covered will address potential design pitfalls and resulting measurement errors, in an effort to provide users a frame work for optimizing their custom chamber designs.

| February 16, 2010 | Kristin Feese | Bringing Research Instruments into Ecology Classrooms... It's Easy with the Right Strategy! By providing your students with research grade instrumentation, you will be encouraging them to ask questions and providing them the means to find answers. This webinar will discuss what to look for in instrumentation, how to find funding for these instruments, and most importantly how to use them successfully in the classroom (including classroom setup and strategies, as well as specific laboratory activities). We will look at how other innovative institutions (large and small) have been successful at incorporating instruments, and how they solved challenges along the way. Focus will be on instrumentation for Biology and Ecology courses. |

Measuring Principles of the LI-7700 Trace Gas Analyzer Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy (WMS) is an established spectroscopic technique that LI-COR has implemented in the new LI-7700 Open Path Methane Analyzer. Recent advances in laser technology and engineering have enabled the use of WMS for this instrument. There are several distinct advantages that WMS provides for trace gas measurements, including the ability to operate at ambient pressure with a short optical path and still produce a strong signal with low noise. This webinar will discuss the WMS technique and how it is implemented in the LI-7700. We will also discuss the advantages that WMS brings to field measurements of methane concentrations and fluxes.

An Introduction to the New LI-7700 Open-Path Methane Analyzer LI-COR is introducing a new high speed, high precision methane analyzer. This new open-path design provides a weatherized field ready solution with low power consumption that allows the user to make stable long term measurements of CH4 densities for atmospheric research and for eddy covariance measurements. Unlike other methane analyzers, the LI-7700 uses Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy which allows for a high speed measurement that can be made at ambient pressure. This webinar will introduce the new LI-7700 analyzer and explain how it has been designed for deployment anywhere that methane fluxes or concentrations need to be measured.

| Nov 10 2009 | Tanvir Demetriades-Shah | Non-destructive Measurements of Leaf Area Index The LAI-2200 can be used in many canopy types including forests, grasslands, row crops, hedges, and isolated trees. The webinar will focus on the terminology and theory behind the LAI-2200 including an explanation on The Gap Fraction Method. Explanations on the difference between the LAI-2200 calculations, Ceptometry and Hemispherical Measurements will also be discussed.

An Introduction to the New LI-7200 CO2/H2O Analyzer Both closed-path and open-path gas analyzers offer unique advantages for making eddy-covariance measurements. This new 'enclosed open-path' design provides a weatherized solution with low power consumption, allowing the user to make stable long-term measurements of CO2 and H2O densities. We will explain how the new LI-7200 combines the best performance features from both closed-path and open-path gas analyzers for making flux measurements.

| Oct 13 2009 | Liukang Xu | Open Path vs. Closed Path Gas Exchange Measurements: Both closed-path and open path CO2/H2O analyzers are widely used to measure the CO2 and H2O flux between an ecosystem and the atmosphere with the eddy-covariance technique. This webinar will discuss their strengths, advantages and different data processing procedures for the each type of analyzer when used for flux measurements.
