A sensor distribution network for detecting the presence of a target species comprises an optical fiber line having a first end and a second end. A light source is associated with the optical fiber line, and transmits light having two or more wavelengths along the optical fiber line from the near the first end. A detector is provided at or near the second end of the optical fiber line for measuring each wavelength of light reaching the detector. The network includes at least one sensor device located on the optical fiber line, the sensor device comprising a light reflecting member for reflecting light of a predetermined wavelength and a sensor member for receiving the reflected light. The sensor member modulates the reflected light in the presence of the target species.
