An Update on Low-cost Sensors for the Measurement of Atmospheric Composition, December 2020
Richard E. Peltier ; Núria Castell, Andrea L Clements, Tim Dye, Christoph Hüglin, Jesse H Kroll, Shih-Chun Candice Lung, Zhi Ning, Matthew Parsons, Michele Penza, Fabienne Reisen and Erika von Schneidemesser - WMO, 2021 (WMO-No. 1215)The report reflects on the state of the art in terms of accuracy, reliability and reproducibility of different sensors used for the measurements of reactive and greenhouse gases, and aerosols, along with the key analytical principles and what has been learned so far about low-cost sensors from both laboratory studies and real-world tests (up to August 2020). In some cases, scientific literature that had been accepted, but not yet published in a final form, was included in this review. Some national and international government documents were also included in this synthesis. The report includes ...

Published by: WMO ; 2021The report reflects on the state of the art in terms of accuracy, reliability and reproducibility of different sensors used for the measurements of reactive and greenhouse gases, and aerosols, along with the key analytical principles and what has been learned so far about low-cost sensors from both laboratory studies and real-world tests (up to August 2020). In some cases, scientific literature that had been accepted, but not yet published in a final form, was included in this review. Some national and international government documents were also included in this synthesis. The report includes eight distinct sections, including an Introduction to the Report, Main Principles and Components, Evaluation Activities, Sensor Performance, Communicating LCS to Society, and Expert Consensus and Advice. Communicating LCS to Society is a new section to the original 2018 report and includes a consensus viewpoint on strategies for communicating LCS data and technologies more broadly to the lay public. This report also includes a set of specific expert consensus recommendations for LCS users across different user groups.

GCOS, 226. GCOS Surface Reference Network (GSRN) : Justification, requirements, siting and instrumentation options
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO); Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC); et al. - WMO, 2019This report is produced by the GSRN Task Team and provides a proposal for the establishment of a GCOS Surface Reference Network, with the support of the GCOS programme, relevant programmes at WMO and the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM). It outlines the next steps required for the implementation of a GSRN: approval of the proposed GSRN by relevant WMO programmes, the GCOS programme and other sponsors, solicitation of offers to host and staff appropriately the proposed Lead Centre, and the selection of suitable sites for an initial GSRN.

气象仪器与观测方法指南 (WMO-No. 8)
《WMO 气象仪器和观测方法指南》(WMO-No.8)第一版于1954 年出版,共十二章。此后,标准化仍然是仪器和观测方法委员会(CIMO)活动的一个关键问题。委员会不断审议指南的 内容,并确保在定期更新时纳入了反映技术的快速发展及其在气象仪器和观测方法领域的 实施的现代指导材料。
对于常规用途的大多数仪器、系统和技术,本指南是一项关键资源,提供了从最简单到最复 杂精细的描述,但不会涉及仅用于研究的方法和工具。指南的目的是给出最佳做法和程序,以及仪器和系统的基本能力,协助国家气象和水文部门或者其他感兴趣的运行观测系统的用 户编制他们的手册和程序,满足各自对测量和观察结果的特定需要。指南有意将标准化限制 在基本要求上,并将建议局限至给定仪器或测量系统不同配置最常见的一般特征,从而给 进一步发展留下广泛余地。对于有关与WIGOS 相关的仪器和观测方法的所有问题,本指南 都是权威参考。
