Characterization of the microenvironment: measurement techniques
1989
Ong, C.K.
Instruments and techniques are described for measuring the temperature, humidity, windspeed, light interception by crop canopy, and the duration of leaf wetness. Data loggers for monitoring these instruments are also reviewed. The performance of this equipment in the semi-arid tropics is evaluated in experiments designed to measure the microclimate in agroforestry and intercropping systems. The difficulties encountered in the field and in the interpretation of data are emphasized. References and details are provided on the principles and construction of individual instruments which are not commercially available
