Instruments which are used to measure temperature and Humidity should be kept inside "stevenson screen". Its a wooden box to shade from direct sunlight, Its painted white to reflect sunlight, It has vents to allow free flow of air. The stevenson screen should be located away from trees and buildings which could affect the temperature!

What instruments are stored in a stevenson screen?
Weather instruments such as thermometers, hygrometers, and barometers are typically stored in a Stevenson screen. These instruments are used to measure temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure for meteorological observations.
What instruments found in stevensons screen?
Stevenson screens typically house instruments used in meteorology, such as thermometers, hygrometers, barometers, and sometimes rain gauges. These instruments are used to measure temperature, humidity, air pressure, and sometimes precipitation. The Stevenson screen provides shelter for these instruments to ensure accurate measurements.
What is a stevenson screen that can be found in every meteorological station?
•Steven sun screen also known as meteorological screen and it is made by wood. •This screen is used at met. Center and it save the instruments from sun light and rain allowing the passage of air.
Why do you not put the stevenson screen on the ground?
The ground, like tarmac or concrete is a solid state which absorb sunlight due to the dark colour (e.g. black). Therefore there is probability that the Stevenson Screen can absorb these heat which can then alter the readings of the instruments. Hope that helps JL

Why are the sides of the 'stevenson screen' louvered?
The sides of a Stevenson screen are louvered to allow air to circulate freely around the temperature and humidity sensors inside. This design helps prevent the sun's direct rays from hitting the sensors and affecting the accuracy of the readings. The louvered sides also help to reduce the impact of thermal radiation on the inside of the screen.
