An Introduction to the New LI-7200 Enclosed 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.
