  "term": "Spherical pyranometer",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A type of pyranometer designed to measure global solar radiation incident from all directions onto a spherical surface. Unlike flat-plate pyranometers, which measure radiation on a horizontal surface, this instrument provides a more representative measure of the total solar energy available to a three-dimensional object. It is often used in agricultural and biological studies.",
