Abstract
A description is given of the assembly, calibration and performance of an irradiance meter intended for underwater measurements in a single wave-band. The meter features high sensitivity by utilizing CdS photoconductors and a FET-type ohm meter, giving a linear response from 10−1–10−6 W m−2. Instrument performance is discussed in relation to angular light response, immersion effect, response time, temperature dependence and filter bandwidth error.
