Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-006449
An instrument designed to measure the rate at which ice accumulates on a surface, particularly on aircraft or meteorological equipment. It typically operates by detecting changes in a vibrating probe's frequency or by measuring the mass of ice deposited. These meters provide quantitative data on icing conditions for aviation safety and research.
