Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-010350
A self-recording instrument that measures and records atmospheric conditions, carried aloft by a kite, balloon, or aircraft. It is a type of meteorograph specifically designed for upper-air soundings, capturing data such as pressure, temperature, and humidity. The data are recorded on a chart driven by a clock mechanism, providing a continuous profile of the atmosphere during ascent and descent.
