How to Predict the Weather Using a Barometer?
Of all weather instruments essential to forecasting, the barometer tops the list. Why? Because every weather change is preceded by a rise or fall in air pressure, and air pressure is just what the barometer measures. If you compare two barometer readings taken an hour or two apart, you will know immediately if the air pressure is rising, falling, or staying the same. And as a result you will be able, with a fair amount of accuracy, to predict tomorrow’s weather. RISING BAROMETER: When the air pressure measures higher than it did in your previous reading, the air is becoming denser, and the barometer is said to be rising. This tells you that clearer, drier, cooler weather is on the way. If the barometer is rising very rapidly from a low position, the weather will clear up very soon, and it will probably become quite windy. But if the barometer rises from a low position gradually and steadily, a long period of good weather is just around the corner. If the barometer is already high and suddenly starts to rise rapidly, expect a sudden drop to follow shortly, and with it, bad weather to come. FALLING BAROMETER: A falling barometer usually indicates rain, wind, and warmer weather. Take note of the speed at which the barometer falls. A very large and rapid drop in air pressure is a sure sign of an approaching storm. If the barometer falls suddenly, but not too far, expect wind and brief showers. If the barometer falls slowly and steadily to a moderately-low position, it may rain nearby, but not necessarily in your immediate area. UNCHANGING BAROMETRIC PRESSURE is a pretty good indication that whatever weather you’re currently enjoying is not about to change any time soon. IMPRESS YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS! With a little experience in charting barometric pressure in your area, you will soon become skilled at noting any changes which are out of the ordinary. At this point, your weather-predicting abilities may begin to rival those of your local TV weatherman. And that would be something to brag about!
Who is the inventor of barometer?

Fish, and other sea creatures. (Apart from things such as dolphins & whales who can just hold their breath for a long time) Human's can artificially breathe, using air tanks or snorkels.
Antique aneroid barometer has a scale of 28 to 31 what units are these?
A meterological type of barometer uses a column of mercury that is supported by atmosperic pressure. The height of this column varies with the atmospheric pressure and was at one time measured off in inches in the range of about 28 to 31 "inches of mercury". The scale now used is Millibars both in aneroid and mercury barometers.
Time when trilobites and fish arrived?

How do you calculate the height of a mountain using a barometer?
throw a barometer from top of thebuilding note the time in which it falls. then put the values in:-height=9.8/2(time)^2i don't guaranty the safety of your barometer...!!!!
How can a barometer help you fish?
Well, you see, fish are natural born scientists. They are infinitely curious about the world around them. Just show up with your fancy barometer instrument and they will just jump up into your boat, yearning to learn. Dinner time!
What are good weather conditions for a fisherman?
The best time to fish is a falling barometer which means that a storm is heading its away. Also a little saying to remember for the wind and its affect on fishing. If the winds coming out of the east the fish bite the least, if its out of the west the fish bite the best, out of the south it blows the bait in the fishes mouth and out of the north Head Home! And this little saying has been pretty accurate 95% of the time.
What kept time for the little boy?
A barometer fuse.
How do fish move around?
Puffer fish swim like any other fish, by using their fins and streamlined body for movement and gills for breathing. The puffer fish only bloats up its body when it is threatened making it difficult to swim but its not like that all the time, in fact the puffer fish is a very good swimmer
Which instrument gives the most information about air pressure?
A barometer. Or a barograph, which is a barometer with it's pointer attached to a pen recorder, to see changes over time.
When is the best time to fish for big carp?
Any time is good but night time often produces the bigger more wary carp when there tends to be less angler pressure on the fish...
Is an itouch good?
The iPod touch is good. It is good for using on the go or in your leisure time.
