The campaign lasted from June 14 to June 21, 2000, in Ruokolahti forest, Finland, which is a typical needle leaf forest. During this one week period, the following canopy parameters were measured: LAI, FPAR, canopy reflectance, canopy transmittance and soil reflectance. LAI values were measured with two LAI-2000 canopy analyzers, FPAR values were measured with an ACCUPAR ceptometer, canopy reflectance, transmittance and soil reflectance values were measured with an ASD spectrometer and an LI-1800 spectrometer. All these instruments can be connected to computers to save the data as ASCII files.
