Hi there I need some advise needed for my University research project. What I am intending to do is to measure the humidity levels in a crop canopy over a 8-24 hour period. The simplest way to do this (I thought) would be simply to connect up some type of device (variable resistor ??) that is sensitive to changes in humidity to an analogue data logger which the university already have (maybe in working order). The restrictions that apply are that there is no AC power supply available in the field and that my electronics knowledge is very limited. I have spoken to several local electronics firms about trying to find such a 'device' but without any great success (Hopefully this is due to their lack of interest in the small quantities concerned). Does anybody know of the existence of a device that would suit these purposes ??? Thanks in advance Peter. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Young | Email : young@winkle.bhpese.oz.au (preferred) Honours Student | or ggpcy@cc.newcastle.edu.au University of Newcastle | N.S.W.
