What equipment do ecologists use?

Answer 1

Meterology is the study of what the weather is, will be, and the causes of weather change.

Of primary interest to our bodies (and bodies of any animal or plant) are temperature, humidity and wind speed. So a thermometer, hygrometer and anemometer are good tools.

In predicting change, change of air pressure is of interest, so a barometer is a good tool.

Also, a study of past weather is a good predictor of future weather. Plus you can develop mathematical models combining all of the above to predict weather. So a computer is a good tool for modern meteorology.

Answer 2

The main tools used by a meteorologist, or weatherman, are:

* Anemometers records wind speed data

* Barometers measures the pressure exerted by the atmosphere by using water, air, or Mercury

* Thermometers is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient using a variety of different principles; it comes from the Greek roots thermo, heat, and meter, to measure.

They use many computers and radars to receive information about storm cells and warn the public.

Answer 3

Climatologists use a wide array of tools to determine long term trend and patterns in weather. Some of these tools are the barometer, hygrometer, thermometer, computer based models, ice cores, and tree rings.

Answer 4

Those who are so called enviromentalists use tablets and computers. But scientists in the branch of science called ecology have to know their scientific method, for example logistic equation for population growth.

Answer 5

They use weather balloons to obtain data from all levels of the atmosphere. The use satellites and radar to observe the atmosphere from a distance. And they use computer models to forecast future weather.

Answer 6

The main tools used by a meteorologist, or weatherman, are:

* Anemometers records wind speed data

* Barometers measures the pressure exerted by the atmosphere by using water, air, or mercury

* Thermometers is a device that measures temperature or temperature gradient using a variety of different principles; it comes from the Greek roots thermo, heat, and meter, to measure.

They use many computers and radars to receive information about storm cells and warn the public.

Answer 7

Climatologists use many different pieces of equipment, but i think arguably the most important piece of technology that they use is the computer and modelling software. When climatologists say that we are going through a stage of global warming, they have taken past data using things like ocean buoys that measure ocean temperature among other things, local weather patterns for countless numbers of years, and many other factors. Then, they have put them into the modelling software and try to extrapolate what happens next. Of course, several outcomes are depicted, but usually there is one that is most probable. In this example, it was global warming.

Answer 8

There are basic instruments and advanced instruments.

The basic ones are: Thermometers, barometers, wind vanes, anemometers and rain/snow guages. Note that a thermometer can be used to measure humidity otherwise a hygrometer is used.

The advanced instruments are radiosonde, radar, satelite images, airplanes and computers.

With the advancement in electronics it is now possible to add solar intensity, lightning detection and hail damage meters.

Answer 9

Climatologists study climates of different places. They use tools such as hygrometers, barometers, and thermometers to measure weather patterns and conditions.

Answer 10

A meretorologist can use radar and satellites.
