  "id": "MLC-T-MET-007512",
  "term": "Net pyrradiometer",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "An instrument designed to measure the net all-wave radiation, which is the algebraic sum of incoming and outgoing shortwave and longwave radiation fluxes at a surface. It typically consists of two thermopile sensors, one facing upward and one facing downward, covered by domes transparent to both solar and terrestrial radiation. This device provides a direct measurement of the total radiative energy exchange at the Earth's surface.",
