Hey Amanda!
This is a little indirect but...Paul Rich's CANOPY program must have that
information/those calculations within it...because when you use the
program, you give it the latitude and it assesses (given the canopy
inputs) the incoming PFD for every day (more or less) at that location
across the year.
I think Paul Rich is (was?) at Livermore Lab. Bob has a copy of this
program, as does Susan Ustin.
How's Riverside going?
Yours,
Michelle
