Climatology

Climatology is the study of climates. In this blog you will study the difference between weather and climate, and how to record weather by using different weather instruments. 





Weather and Climate


Distinguish between weather and climate 


Weather- refers to the condition of the atmosphere over a short period of time (a few hours or a day) at a specific place and time such as your village or town. Weather can change quickly from place to place and hour to hour.







Climate- refers to the average atmospheric conditions of a certain area, such as Namibia as observed and calculated over a long period of time, for example 20 to 30 years. Climate is thus the name given to weather patterns over a long period.

    This is very insightful✨, it's interesting to learn how weather refers to short-term atmospheric conditions, while climate describes patterns over a longer period. It's a neat distinction👌! Kudos to you girl🫡

 Humidity  How to measure Humidity  Humidity is the amount of water vapour in the air and is expressed as a percentage (%). The instrument that we use to measure humidity is called a wet and dry bulb thermometer, also known as a hygrometer. Figure 1.1 A wet and dry bulb thermometer  The wet and dry bulb thermometer consists of two normal thermometers that are exactly the same. These thermometers are mounted parallel to each other. Underneath one of the thermometers is a small bottle filled with distilled water. The bulb of this thermometer is covered with a small wick or cloth. The end of the wick hangs in the bottle with distilled water. ( see Figure 1.1). As the water rises up the wick, it evaporates causing the wet bulb thermometer to cool down, and to measure a lower temperature. The dry bulb thermometer will indicate the real air temperature.
