Forestry pros, researchers, or outdoor enthusiasts — this Spherical Crown Densiometer (Convex Model A) is a handy tool for measuring canopy cover and light levels. It helps determine spacing for forest thinning and assesses light availability for regrowth. The convex design includes a mirrored reflector with a cross grid of 24 quarter-inch squares to plot overhead cover. There’s a built-in level bubble to ensure accurate, consistent readings. To use it, hold the densiometer level, about 12–18 inches from your body at elbow height, and avoid letting your head block the grid. Comes with operating instructions and a neat walnut case (3” x 3”). Simple, practical, and precise for field work.
