Temperature Profiler
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-027780
Remote sensing devices that receives electromagnetic or acoustic waves transmitted through, emitted by, or reflected from the atmosphere in order to produce a vertical profile (a graph showing the variation of a meteorological event with height) of one or more atmospheric _quantities such as temperature. Wind profilers are radars that are used to measure vertical profiles of the wind; also called wind profiler radar.
