What does weather balloons carry to give us a temperature above ground?
a baromometer
What do weather balloons carry to give us the temperature reading above the ground?
Wind Height
What advantage do weather satellites have over ground based weather stations?
They are not affected by conditions on the ground. Ground-based stations could be destroyed by severe weather (such as tornadoes or hurricanes). Satellites don't get affected by Earth's weather. Of course - satellites are at risk of meteor strike and solar radiation - but there's less chance of them being damaged.
What tools Help us Pridict What kind of weather is coming?
Radar Satellite Weather balloon Ground based weather stations Computer modeling systems Airplanes
Where do the images A of weather systems on the television come from?
The images of weather systems on television typically come from weather satellites in space, radar systems on the ground, and weather stations located around the world. These images are captured, processed, and then transmitted to television stations or weather forecasting centers for broadcasting.
Can lightning be detected?
No, not before hand, but once lightening strikes the ground weather balloons can actually capture their location, heat, etc.
What source provides measurements for just one location ground station radar station sateloitte or water balloon?
Weather Balloon
What is a weather balloon?
Weather balloons typically carry a thermometer (to measure air temperature), a psychrometer (to measure humidity), a barometer (to measure air pressure) and a transmitter (to send the information through radio waves to equipment at the ground so we will know what the instruments are measuring up in the air)
How do hot air balloons return to the ground?
the air cools in the balloon therefor it lowers to the ground
What happened to the balloons after deflating it?
they land on the ground and animals eat it.
What are 3 sources from which meteorologists collect weather data?
Meteorologists use satellite systems (Primarily) and networks of atmospheric data-collection centers. Baloons, historical data and theories also contribute to the sources meteorologists have at their disposal.
From where does a weather forecaster obtain the information about weather?
The NOAA has several Satellites and other ground based equipment to monitor the weather. This information is given to people throughout the country for this purpose. Some television stations have their own radar for this purpose. Other countries use NOAA or have similar companies.
