It discusses a wide range of in situ sensors employed in practical environmental monitoring and, in particular, those used in surface based measurement systems. It also considers the use of weather balloons to provide a wealth of upper atmosphere data. To illustrate the technologies in use it includes many examples of real atmospheric measurements in typical and unusual circumstances, with a discussion of the electronic signal conditioning, data acquisition coAdvancing weather and climate science.MeteorologyMeasurementMeteorological instrumentsMeteorologyMeteorologyMeasurement.Meteorological instruments.Meteorology.551.50284Harrison R.
