Short description

The University of Exeter is a rapidly expanding centre of internationally excellent research and education. As part of the CREWW project, we wish to procure a number of field greenhouse gas analysers. These will be deployed in remote, climatically wet ecosystems to monitor the effects of different ecosystem management strategies.
This contract opportunity is divided into the following lots:
Lot 1 – Multiple Automated-Chamber GHG System
Lot 2 – Portable GHG System
Lot 3 – Combined offering of Lot 1 and Lot 2
Lot 4 – Automated Soil Respiration
Tenders may be submitted for one or more lots.
