【 摘 要 】

The ARM Surface Meteorology Systems consist mainly of conventional in situ sensors that obtain a defined ???core??? set of measurements. The core set of measurements is: Barometric Pressure (kPa), Temperature (?��C), Relative Humidity (%), Arithmetic-Averaged Wind Speed (m/s), Vector-Averaged Wind Speed (m/s), and Vector-Averaged Wind Direction (deg). The sensors that collect the core variables are mounted at the standard heights defined for each variable: ??? Winds: 10 meters ??? Temperature and Relative Humidity: 2 meters ??? Barometric Pressure: 1 meter. Depending upon the geographical location, different models and types of sensors may be used to measure the core variables due to the conditions experienced at those locations. Most sites have additional sensors that measure other variables that are unique to that site or are well suited for the climate of the location but not at others.
