系統(tǒng)功能

采用熱擴散技術測量植物莖干莖流速度，特別適用于莖干較粗的樹木和高大植物。若配合其它傳感器使用，可測量環(huán)境因子（空氣溫濕度，光合有效輻射、土壤溫濕度等）影響下的植物莖流。

工作原理

利用Granier熱擴散傳感器（TDP）原理，把2根熱電偶探針直接插入邊材，上面的探針包含1個電加熱器，下面的探針作為參照，測量加熱探針和參照探針之間的溫差dT。根據(jù)dT和零莖流時的dTm，應用Granier模型，可以直接得到每個時刻的莖流速率，再根據(jù)邊材面積求出莖流通量。

對于郁閉冠層下長勢一致的樹木，每棵樹只需一個傳感器。對于不規(guī)則冠層或混合樹種，大樹的莖流速率在樹周不同方向上存在差異，一棵樹需要使用多個傳感器才能準確測量莖流。直徑在75~150 mm的樹木，每棵樹通常需安裝2套傳感器；直徑在150~440 mm的樹木，每棵樹安裝4套傳感器。

系統(tǒng)特點

雙探針，Granier磚利設計

探針易插拔，可重復使用

恒溫加熱，采用熱擴散方法，而不是準確度較差的熱脈沖方法

可以連續(xù)測量（熱脈沖方法不可以，有等待周期）
