What is the work environment like for meteorologists?

-Gather and interpret data in order to forecast weather. -They use instruments to measure the temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed, rainfall, and air quality. -Photograph and record data from satellites.


What were the temperatures for the month of September 2008?

The average global temperature for September 2008 is .161 above the average global temperature from 1979-2008. The link below is satellite data: http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/public/msu/t2lt/tltglhmam_5.2 September is the 13th straight month whose global average temperature is lower than a year earlier. That means that the 12 month running average has been going down since July 2007.


What is Another name for a weather station?

Usually weather station offers measurement of different weather related data. Also, it shows the data on the controller or receiver.There are many instruments that will measure only one aspect of the weather and so they will have different names. e.g. Anemometer is used to measure wind speed, direction. Thermometer to measure temperature, barometer to measure pressure, altimeter to measure altitude, hygrometer to measure humidity, etc.


What are the types of weather data gathered by satellites?

These days they can gather lots of different data in the atmosphere. There can take profiles of the temperature, humidity, optical thickness of the atmosphere...they can look at clouds, look inside them, measure every type of particle size in clouds and in the air, they can measure precipitation and precipitation rates, wind direction and speed....they're far from perfect, but they can measure most variables in the atmosphere and ocean surface.


What is the number of years of data needed to predict Global warming?

Scientists have been using the data over the last 250 years (since the start of the Industrial Revolution) to monitor the rise of Global Warming.

What is the temperatures inside the earth?

Temperature in the core of the earth could be as much as 7000 degrees K according to the Wikipedia article on the earth. We have no technology to actually measure it, and can only make projections. But you already knew that. There is a school of thought that gathers many followers, and that is a range of 5000 to 6000 degrees K is the core temperature. There is a temperature gradient from the core outward, as one might easily guess. Temperatures at the mantle where it abuts the crust range from 500 to 900 degrees C. From there on in, the temperature increases until the mantle and core "boundary" where it's about 4000 degrees C. All data set out here are mined from Wikipedia. Links are provided.

What do acceleration data loggers measure?

An acceleration data logger measures and records the activity and motion. They are used to find the activity of temperature, humidity, and pressure.


What is the temperature of Kepler 22b?

At the moment not enough data is available to give a precise temperature of Kepler 22B. However, estimates have placed the Global Equilibrium Temperature at 262 K −11 °C 22.2 °F.


Can a liquid in glass thermometer be connected to a data logger to measure a temperature?

No, because it does not generate an electrical signal. It is an analogue instrument.

What is global conceptual schema?

The enterprise view of the data is described by the global conceptual schema (GCS), which is global because it describes the logical structure of the data at all the sites.
