Measurements of atmospheric water vapour using a balloon-borne surface acoustic wave frost point hygrometer
A frost point hygrometer is described in this thesis which uses surface acoustic waves (SAWs) to detect water vapour condensation. The SAW device crystal is cooled by a thermoelectric cooler until condensation occurs, at which point, water vapour loading onto the SAW device causes changes in the SAW...
