Meteorological terminology

The pressure generated by the movement of air molecules in any surface unit area. It is usually expressed by the weight of vertical atmospheric column per unit cross-sectional area above the measured height. Atmospheric pressure is related to altitude, atmospheric temperature and atmospheric density, and generally decreases exponentially with altitude. The air pressure changes every day.

Liquid water or solid water falling from the clouds to the ground. Common forms are rain, snow and hail. According to the nature of precipitation, it can be divided into continuous precipitation, paroxysmal precipitation and intermittent precipitation. Formation precipitation starts and ends suddenly, and the precipitation intensity changes greatly; Continuous precipitation lasts for a long time and the precipitation intensity changes little; Intermittent descent

Generally speaking, temperature refers to measuring the degree of heat and cold of an object with a thermometer. The temperature of an object reflects the average kinetic energy of molecular motion inside the object. The faster the molecule moves, the hotter the object, that is, the higher the temperature; The slower the molecule moves, the colder the object, that is, the lower the temperature. This phenomenon is described as ...

At a certain temperature, the less water vapor in a certain volume of air, the drier the air; The more water vapor, the wetter the air. The degree of dryness and wetness of air is called "humidity"

Wind direction Meteorology, the direction of the wind is determined as the wind direction.

Wind force fēngli( 1)[ wind force]: the power of the wind,

Radiation 1, a natural phenomenon, defines all objects in nature. As long as the temperature is above the absolute temperature of zero, it constantly transfers heat to the outside world in the form of electromagnetic waves. This way of transmitting energy is called radiation.

Can observe the highest and lowest temperature, dry and wet bulb temperature, air pressure, precipitation, snowfall, ground temperature, sunshine, evaporation and so on.
