hey bart, I just received the latest Weatherwise magazine, and under their reviews&resources section, they reviewed "Measuring the Natural Environment" by Ian Strangeways. Seems like it would be a good supplemental text for Instrumentation class, and for anyone else who is looking for a good book on instruments.
"...Well-designed diagrams, charts, and graphs depicting instrument layout, design, and important background material... there are excellent photos in each chapter that illustrate different instruments and provide some instructive documentation of scientists setting up field sites... Overall, this is a useful reference for any scientist who designs, uses, or deploys meteorological instrumentation. In addition, it would also make an excellent text for a class on instrumentation and environmental monitoring."
