Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

The standard unification of hydrophysical measurements poses a worldwide problem inasmuch as the problems of global climatology cannot be solved without reliable measurement results. Moreover, the unification of measurements is necessary at regional levels, when a common ground of interactive “conversation” becomes possible with regard for the specific hydrological characteristics of the environment, and the results of measurements obtained by different teams using different instruments are compatible and applicable, for example, to forecasting problems, etc. However, the cost of full-scale, in situ testing and measurement compels scientists to look for alternatives that will reduce costs in both time and money. Results obtained in the laboratory, of course, need to be verified in the natural environment; simultaneously, however, prerequisites are created in the laboratory for the standardization of instrument calibrations and measurement procedures under identical conditions. These prerequisites and conditions must be recorded and established by standards documentation of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the International Metrological Association (IMA), the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and other agencies so that the practical implementation of international accords for safeguarding the environment and the global climate will be guaranteed at the international level.
