Dear faizal, I have used the Sunfleck Ceptometer (SF-80, Decagon Devices) in the boreal forest of western Québec. It has 80 sensors 1 cm apart along a probe. You can thus ask for the mean PAR, sunflect % (with adjustable thresholds), etc. You can read the measurement in real time or store the data for future computer download. It is a good instrument although I don't trust the computer download system since you have to rely on the time of day to retrieve the data. The reading number is shown on the screen when you enter the data but not saved in the file. Martin Béland F.
