Development of a Microcomputer Program for Data Collection and Processing in Field Experiments.

Abstract

The Atmospheric Sciences Department at the University of Washington has established an experimental site on Lake Washington, where turbulent fluxes, wave height, and other air-sea interaction related measurements are obtained. The present configuration consists of a mast, positioned 30 m from shore, on which a variety of meteorological instruments are mounted. The instrument analog signals are sent back to shore via lines and are digitized and recorded on audio tape with a frequency shift keying system.
