Despite the importance of fPAR, there has been little research into how fPAR may change with biome and latitude, or the extent and number of ground networks required to validate satellite products. This study provides the first attempt to quantify the variability and uncertainties related to in-situ 2-flux fPAR estimation within a tropical dry forest (TDF) via co-located sensors. Using the wireless sensor network (WSN) at the Santa Rosa National Park Environmental Monitoring Super Site (Guanacaste, Costa Rica), this study analyzes the 2-flux fPAR response to seasonal, environmental, and meteorological influences over a period of five years (2013\u20132017). Using statistical tests on the distribution of fPAR measurements throughout the days and seasons based on the sky condition, solar zenith angle, and wind-speed, we determine which conditions reduce variability, and their relative impact on in-situ fPAR estimation. Additionally, using a generalized linear mixed effects model, we determine the relative impact of the factors above, as well as soil moisture on the prediction of fPAR. Our findings suggest that broadleaf deciduous forests, diffuse light conditions, and low wind patterns reduce variability in fPAR, whereas higher winds and direct sunlight increase variability between co-located sensors. The co-located sensors used in this study were found to agree within uncertanties; however, this uncertainty is dominated by the sensor drift term, requiring routine recalibration of the sensor to remain within a defined criteria. We found that for the Apogee SQ-110 sensor using the manufacturer calibration, recalibration around every 4 years is needed to ensure that it remains within the 10% global climate observation system (GCOS) requirement. We finally also find that soil moisture is a significant predictor of the distribution and magnitude of fPAR, and particularly impacts the onset of senescence for TDFs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs14122752","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,12]],"date-time":"2022-06-12T23:55:24Z","timestamp":1655078124000},"page":"2752","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Calibration of Co-Located Identical PAR Sensors Using Wireless Sensor Networks and Characterization of the In Situ fPAR Variability in a Tropical Dry Forest"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7768-6600","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Arturo","family":"Sanchez-Azofeifa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Center for Earth Observation Science, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2E3, Canada"}]},{"given":"Iain","family":"Sharp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Center for Earth Observation Science, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2E3, Canada"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1543-1658","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paul D.","family":"Green","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Physical Laboratory, Teddington TW11 0LW, UK"}]},{"given":"Joanne","family":"Nightingale","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CSX Carbon, Barningham DL11 7DW, UK"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"114","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tplants.2014.10.008","article-title":"Global satellite monitoring of climate-induced vegetation disturbances","volume":"20","author":"McDowell","year":"2015","journal-title":"Trends Plant Sci."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"216","DOI":"10.1016\/j.rse.2013.07.027","article-title":"Validation of coarse spatial resolution LAI and FAPAR time series over cropland in southwest France","volume":"139","author":"Claverie","year":"2013","journal-title":"Remote Sens.
