Abstract:
Measurements are vital for all atmospheric studies and applications (meteorological, climatological and environmental). The proposed book describes the methods used to measure the most important variables of the atmospheric environment: solar and terrestrial radiation, meteorological parameters (air temperature and humidity, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction) as well as air quality ( air pollutant concentrations). The book analyzes the characteristics, uncertainty and sources of error of sensors and measurement systems of atmospheric parameters. The whole range of measurement techniques is covered (surface-height-column as well as on-site-active remote sensing-passive remote sensing). The book will be important to students of environmental sciences but also to all professionals who use or collect atmospheric data in a wide range of environmental sciences: meteorology, climatology, air pollution.
