Description

LI-COR proposes to continue development of a next-generation CO2/CH4/H2O analyzer that will offer an unprecedented combination of high precision and stability, making it the first highperformance gas analyzer suitable for long-term unattended operation. The instrument will be smaller, lighter, and far less expensive than competing technologies. LI-COR’s approach exploits a proprietary, revolutionary design that overcomes the limitations of existing techniques and enables a sophisticated spectroscopic analysis strategy that is far more robust than competing approaches. The objective of Phase II is to build, characterize and demonstrate an engineering prototype that meets NOAA’s proposed specifications.
