Field Spectroradiometry and |
| About Field Spectroradiometry Field spectroradiometry refers to the measurement of the spectral characteristics of light as it is reflected from features in the "field", as opposed to in the laboratory. At ERSC, we have two field spectroradiometer systems that are primarily used for studying the optical properties of lakes. This site provides an online library of spectral measurements from lakes, with simultaneously- acquired water chemistry data where available. It also provides information about the configuration of our spectroradiometer systems, and a list of publications. |

Spectral Libraries For those wishing to examine lake spectra first-hand, we're providing libraries of reflectance spectra acquired from a wide range of lakes. The data are provided as delimited text files suitable for importing into spreadsheets, databases, or statistical software. Simultaneously-acquired water chemistry data also provided for many lakes. |
