  2. Hvat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hvat

    Square hvat is used as the basis for other units of surface in the hvat system. motika; one motika = 200 square hvats = 719.3304 square meters.; jutro ("morning", compare the unit Morgen) or Joch in Austria; one jutro = 8 motika = 1,600 square hvats [1] = 5,754.6432 square meters.

  4. Visibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visibility

    The international definition of fog is a visibility of less than 1 km (3,300 ft); mist is a visibility of between 1 km (0.62 mi) and 2 km (1.2 mi) and haze from 2 km (1.2 mi) to 5 km (3.1 mi). Fog and mist are generally assumed to be composed principally of water droplets, haze and smoke can be of smaller particle size.

  5. Cloud base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_base

    Divide the spread by 4.4 (if temperatures are in °F) or 2.5 (if temperatures are in °C), then multiply by 1000. This will give the altitude of the cloud base in feet above ground level. Put in a simpler way, 400 feet for every 1°C dew point spread. For metric divide the spread in °C by 8 and multiply by 1000 and get the cloud base in meters.

  6. dBZ (meteorology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBZ_(meteorology)

    The scale of dBZ values can be seen along the bottom of the image. dBZ is a logarithmic dimensionless technical unit used in radar. It is mostly used in weather radar, to compare the equivalent reflectivity factor (Z) of a remote object (in mm 6 per m 3) to the return of a droplet of rain with a diameter of 1 mm (1 mm 6 per m 3).

  7. Okta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okta

    Scale of cloud cover measured in oktas (eighths) with the meteorological symbol for each okta. In meteorology, an okta is a unit of measurement used to describe the amount of cloud cover at any given location such as a weather station.

  8. Prevailing visibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prevailing_visibility

    The value obtained is usually reported on a METAR and recorded on the ATIS. In Canada, it is the maximum visibility value common to sectors comprising one-half or more of the horizon circle. [ 1 ] The horizon circle may be divided into as many sections as required based on differing visibilities.

  9. Femtometre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femtometre

    The femtometre (American spelling femtometer), symbol fm, [1] [2] (derived from the Danish and Norwegian word femten 'fifteen', Ancient Greek: μέτρον, romanized: metron, lit. 'unit of measurement') is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 10 −15 metres , which means a quadrillionth of one metre.
