Josef Eitzinger is professor for Agrometeorology at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, BOKU, Vienna (Austria). His long-time expertise and research focus includes the processes of soil-crop-atmosphere interactions, crop modelling, crop-water balance, drought and cropping risks monitoring, agrometeorological measurements and climate change impact assessments on crop production. Branislava Lalic is a professor of Meteorology and Biophysics at Faculty of Agriculture, UNS, Novi Sad (Serbia). Decades of experience in teaching micrometeorological measurements, instrumentation and data management, particularly to agronomy students and early-career researchers inspired this beginner-oriented guide. Thomas Foken is a retired professor of micrometeorology at the University of Bayreuth (Germany) with many years of experience in research and teaching on the interaction between the Earth's surface and the atmosphere. He previously headed departments at the meteorological observatories in Potsdam and Lindenberg. His work on experimental meteorology has been honoured internationally. Tamás Weidinger is a retired Associate Professor at Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE, Budapest, Hungary), with a PhD in meteorology.

His main research topic is surface-biosphere-atmosphere exchange processes including both measurements and modelling. He is an editor of Theoretical and Applied Climatology and Editorial Board member of Idojárás (Quarterly Journal of the HungaroMet).
