A Stevenson screen or instrument shelter is an enclosure to shield meteorological instruments against precipitation and direct heat radiation from outside sources, while still allowing air to circulate freely around them. It was designed by Thomas Stevenson (1818-1887), a British civil engineer and father of the author Robert Louis Stevenson.

The Stevenson screen was invented in the 19th century by the British meteorologist Thomas Stevenson, who sought to create a standardized shelter for meteorological instruments. Designed to protect thermometers and other instruments from direct sunlight, rain, and wind while allowing adequate ventilation, the screen featured a louvered design and a white-painted wooden structure.
