This is a discussion of the available technology for measuring turbulent fluxes using instrumented towers. This review focuses on the flux measurements of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) for agricultural systems and the development of standards and protocols for measuring them. Agroecosystems present unique challenges because they undergo large leaf area index (LAI) and canopy architecture changes in a relatively short period of time (i.e., months) coupled with the fact that many of the greenhouse gas sources are diffuse. This review examines all aspects of the theory and application of the micrometeorological techniques, with focus on the flux gradient, eddy accumulation and eddy covariance techniques. Instrument placement, sens or response and noise characteristics are also explored. Innovative applications of micrometeorological methods are discussed for closed- and open-path trace gas sensors and commonly used meteorological instrumentation. The use of fast response single-pass optical tunable diode laser (i.e., CH4, N2O) and infrared gas analyzers (i.e., CO2, H2O) is described. Consideration is also taken of the trace gas sensors’flow system design, mixing ratio measurement, and data acquisition and reduction requirements for micrometeorological flux measurement. Procedures are outlined for the meteorological instrumentation necessary for eddy covariance-based energy budget measurement including ultrasonic anemometry. Key words: Tower-based greenhouse gas flux measurements, nitrous oxide, methane, carbon dioxide, tunable diode laser

AbstractA potentially implantable semiconductor-laser-based sensor is demonstrated to be feasible for glucose detection at concentrations found in the human blood. In the system, the monochromatic, linearly polarized light from a diode laser is directed into an external cavity with a second diode laser at the far end. The cavity is filled with a glucose solution of varying physiological concentrations. The interference of the rotated, polarized light from the first diode laser with that of the second laser is monitored by a photodiode, forming an optoelectronic pair with the first diode laser. A variation in glucose concentration of 0.1 to 0.3 g/dl results in a 5% variation in the photodiode current. This variation is sufficient to provide feedback to an insulin pump.
