Agriculture & Soil Science
Agricultural soil science examines soil as a manageable natural resource affecting the development of plants responsible for food and fiber. Soil traits and related agricultural activities may influence, or be influenced by, greenhouse gas concentrations. With soil’s integral role in cycles such as nitrogen (N) and carbon (C), this science often seeks to measure soil flux—the exchange of gases between soil and the atmosphere—of methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrous oxide (N2O). Monitoring methods include chamber techniques, micrometeorological approaches, satellite observations, and airborne surveys.

G2201-i Isotopic AnalyzerThe Picarro G2201-i isotope analyzer precisely and continuously measures δ13C in carbon dioxide (CO2) and in methane (CH4) to help understand the biological and geological mechanisms that produce and consume CO2. |
G2201-i | |
G2311-f EC Flux Gas Concentration AnalyzerThe Picarro G2301-f flux gas concentration analyzer provides simultaneous, precise measurement of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and water (H2O) vapor at 10 Hz for eddy covariance, gradient, and eddy accumulation methodologies. |
G2311-f | |
G2508 Gas Concentration AnalyzerThe Picarro G2508 gas concentration analyzer provides simultaneous, precise measurement of nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), ammonia (NH3) at parts-per-billion (ppb), and water (H2O) vapor at parts-per-million (ppm) sensitivity with negligible drift for agriculture soil science, ecology, and emissions quantification. |
G2508 | |
G2509 Gas Concentration AnalyzerThe Picarro G2509 gas concentration analyzer is designed for use in livestock farming, manure processing, and fertilizer studies. It provides real-time, at-scale measurements of nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), ammonia (NH3) at parts-per-billion (ppb), and water (H2O) vapor at parts-per-million (ppm) sensitivity, with negligible drift. |
G2509 | |
δ15N for nitrous oxide (N2O) and N2O gas concentrationThe Picarro G5102-i isotopic and gas concentration analyzer enables measurements of site specific and bulk δ15N in N2O. It is an ideal solution for discerning and measuring the source of N2O emissions real-time in the field or through grab-sample measurements in the lab. |
G5102-i | |
SI2103 Gas Concentration AnalyzerThe Picarro SI2103 gas concentration analyzer delivers ultra-precise and stable measurements of ammonia (NH3) with a parts-per-trillion (ppt) lower limit of detection (LOD) and negligible drift. It is the ideal solution for urban and atmospheric air quality monitoring, studies of particulate matter formation, livestock emission quantification, vehicle emission quantification, indoor air quality and other applications. |
