   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevenson_screen

   Stevenson screen. Exterior of a Stevenson screen. A Stevenson screen or instrument shelter is a shelter or an enclosure used to protect meteorological instruments against precipitation and direct heat radiation from outside sources, while still allowing air to circulate freely around them. [1] It forms part of a standard weather station and ...

3. Thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermometer

   A thermometer is a device that measures temperature (the degree of hotness or coldness of an object) or temperature gradient (the rates of change of temperature in space). A thermometer has two important elements: (1) a temperature sensor (e.g. the bulb of a mercury-in-glass thermometer or the pyrometric sensor in an infrared thermometer) in ...

4. Galileo thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo_thermometer

   A risen orange orb denotes 24 °C. A Galileo thermometer (or Galilean thermometer) is a thermometer made of a sealed glass cylinder containing a clear liquid and several glass vessels of varying density. The individual floats rise or fall in proportion to their respective density and the density of the surrounding liquid as the temperature changes.

5. Temperature measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_measurement

   Temperature measurement. A medical/clinical thermometer showing the temperature of 38.7 °C (101.7 °F) Temperature measurement (also known as thermometry) describes the process of measuring a current temperature for immediate or later evaluation. Datasets consisting of repeated standardized measurements can be used to assess temperature trends.

6. Mercury-in-glass thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury-in-glass_thermometer

   A basic mercury thermometer is a precisely crafted piece of tube-shaped glass enveloping a mercury-filled reservoir connected to an extremely thin channel, called the capillary bore, that provides a chamber the mercury from the reservoir can expand into. The shorter, bulbous end of the tube containing the reservoir is called the bulb and the ...

7. Liquid crystal thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_thermometer

   A liquid crystal thermometer, temperature strip or plastic strip thermometer is a type of thermometer that contains heat-sensitive ( thermochromic) liquid crystals in a plastic strip that change colour to indicate different temperatures. [1] Liquid crystals possess the mechanical properties of a liquid, but have the optical properties of a ...
