Online Video Course on Weather Observation : Equipment - Thermometer

9 July 2020

The tenth episode of the "Online Video Course on Weather Observation" will introduce how the weather observer measures air temperature. Do you know which five types of thermometer are housed inside the thermometer shed at the Hong Kong Observatory Headquarters? What are their principles of measurement? If we make a Stevenson screen type of temperature measurement, what are the requirements? This video will give you answers to these questions one by one.

The video (in Chinese) is now available on the "MyObservatory" mobile application, Observatory's website and the Observatory's YouTube channel. Please stay tuned for the release of the next episode of the online course!
