Description

Fluency rate and irradiance, two parameters used to quantify light and ultraviolet radiation, do not have a constant relation under natural light conditions. A method is described for measuring fluence rate, the preferred parameter, using meters intended for irradiance measurements. Values measured under natural light conditions are compared to a daylight model. (Author)
