micrometeorology|ˌmaɪkrəʊmiːtɪəˈrɒlədʒɪ|
[f. micro- 2 a + meteorology.]
The study of the meteorological characteristics of a small area; the study of small-scale meteorological phenomena.
1930Flight 18 Apr. 442 The progress of European meteorology in the past fifteen years..is due to the introduction of micrometeorology, or detailed observations from an ever-increasing number of weather stations. 1953O. G. Sutton (title) Micrometeorology: a study of physical processes in the lowest layers of the earth's atmosphere. 1968New Scientist 5 Dec. 565/1 By incorporating fluctuations of temperature and humidity, one can arrive at similar expressions for the transport of heat and water vapour. The determination of these three vertical transports is one of the central problems in micrometeorology. 1974Physics Bull. Feb. 66/2 The heat balance of plants and animals and the micrometeorology of crops.
Hence ˌmicrometeoroˈlogical a., -meteoˈrologist.
1942Univ. Chicago Inst. Meteorol. Misc. Rep. No. 3. 1 The study of the exact nature of these more or less localized thunderstorms suggests the use of a micrometeorological network of stations. Such a network exists over the Muskingum Watershed in..Ohio where the United States Soil Conservation Service..has maintained a dense observational network. The stations are no more than 8 miles apart. 1953O. G. Sutton Micrometeorol. p. vii, I have attempted to meet the needs of meteorologists..who require detailed information about physical processes in the regions of the atmosphere where life is most abundant. It is my hope that such an account will help to increase the number of micrometeorologists. 1960Times 30 Aug. 2/2 The work will involve physical and micrometeorological problems of measurement. 1968New Scientist 5 Dec. 564/2 While the micrometeorologist's most productive tools are certain statistical concepts of fluid mechanics and aerodynamics, much experimental work needs to be done before these concepts can be applied to the atmosphere. |
