2. Wet-bulb globe temperature - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_globe_temperature

   Electronic WBGT meter Analog WBGT meter consisting of three thermometers and a slide rule to compute WBGT. The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans.

3. Smart thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_thermometer

   Continuous readings can be provided by wearable or adhesive thermometers but it is difficult to measure core body temperature in this way. Invasive sensors can be attached in a hospital setting such as intensive care or neonatal care. For more general use, form-factors such as arm bands and earbuds have been tried.

   Aircraft use thermometers and hygrometers to determine if atmospheric icing conditions exist along their flight path. These measurements are used to initialize weather forecast models . Thermometers are used in roadways in cold weather climates to help determine if icing conditions exist and indoors in climate control systems.

5. 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 water vapor it contains. [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.

   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 direction; Wind vane (also called a weather vane or a weathercock) for showing the wind direction

7. Wet-bulb temperature - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_temperature

   The wet-bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that may be achieved by evaporative cooling of a water-wetted, ventilated surface.. By contrast, the dew point is the temperature to which the ambient air must be cooled to reach 100% relative humidity assuming there is no further evaporation into the air; it is the temperature where condensation (dew) and clouds would form.
