2. List of weather instruments - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_weather_instruments

   Thermometer for measuring air and sea surface temperature; Barometer for measuring atmospheric pressure; Hygrometer for measuring humidity; Anemometer for measuring wind speed; Pyranometer for measuring solar radiation; Rain gauge for measuring liquid precipitation over a set period of time; Wind sock for measuring general wind speed and wind ...

3. Meteorological instrumentation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteorological_instrumentation

   The measurements taken include temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and precipitation amounts. Wind measurements are taken as free of other obstructions as possible, while temperature and humidity measurements are kept free from direct solar radiation, or insolation. Manual observations are taken at least once ...

4. Hygrometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygrometer

   A hygrometer is an instrument which measures the humidity of air or some other gas: that is, how much of it is water vapor. [1] Humidity measurement instruments usually rely on measurements of some other quantities such as temperature, pressure, mass, and mechanical or electrical changes in a substance as moisture is absorbed.

5. Indoor–outdoor thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoor–outdoor_thermometer

   In an indoor–outdoor thermometer based on a conventional liquid-in-glass thermometer, the stem of the outdoor thermometer is connected to the bulb by a long, flexible or semi-rigid capillary. The temperature scale is marked on the stem as usual. However, the temperature that is actually measured is the temperature at the bulb. [1]

6. Thermo-hygrograph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermo-hygrograph

   A thermo-hygrograph. A thermo-hygrograph or hygrothermograph is a chart recorder that measures and records both temperature and humidity (or dew point).Similar devices that record only one parameter are a thermograph for temperature and hygrograph for humidity.

7. Wet-bulb globe temperature - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_globe_temperature

   T g = Globe thermometer temperature (measured with a globe thermometer, also known as a black globe thermometer) T d = Dry-bulb temperature (actual air temperature) Temperatures may be in either Celsius or Fahrenheit; Indoors the following formula is used: = + If a meter is not available, the WBGT can be calculated from current or historic ...
