Abstract
This paper describes simple ways of measuring the very local climate near the ground, and explains what these measurements mean. The equipment described includes a solar radiometer and a dew point instrument, both with mercury-in-glass thermometers, and a thermocouple psychrometer. The psychrometer may be used with standard metering equipment and a suitable metering device is described. Examples are given of field measurements taken with some of the equipment described and the presentation of results and their interpretation are discussed.
