PAR units wrong in Fig. 2d

@mcgregorian1 , could you please fix this when you get a chance?

I'm a little confused. The basic definition of PAR is that it is only light wavelengths between 400-700 nm, but the plot varies from 0-2000.

Checking the NEON description of the data product, it says

• Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) observations represent the radiation flux at wavelengths between 400-700 nm, which constitute the wavelengths that drive photosynthesis.

I think this is why I have the current units as micromol^-2 s^-1. Thoughts?

You're just missing the m-2. SHould be µmol m-2 s-1.

For example, here: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0206149

Ah my bad! It is now fixed
