Eddy Covariance System for Evapotranspiration Research

Oregon State University is seeking a single‑source contract with LI‑COR, Inc. to provide a complete above‑canopy eddy covariance system for long‑term evapotranspiration research. The system must collect high‑frequency (20 Hz) flux data, operate reliably in remote forest environments with low power consumption, and support multi‑decade deployment. It must also integrate meteorological sensors compatible with the AmeriFlux data standards used across Oregon research sites. The solicitation is a sole‑source award; no competitive bidding process is required. • Provide a turnkey eddy covariance instrumentation package (sensors, data loggers, power solutions). • Ensure system meets 20 Hz sampling, low‑power, and durability requirements for remote forest deployment. • Integrate meteorological sensors and data processing compatible with Oregon AmeriFlux standards. • Deliver, install, and verify system performance on‑site, with documentation for long‑term operation.
