geothermometern.

Brit.

/ˌdʒiːəʊθəˈmɒmᵻtə/, U.S.

/ˌdʒioʊθərˈmɑmədər/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; originally modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: geo- comb. form, thermometer n.

Etymology: < geo- comb. form + thermometer n., in sense 1 after German Geothermometer (G. Magnus 1831, in Ann. der Physik u. Chem. 22 137; also Erdthermometer, in the same source).

Geology.

1. A thermometer for measuring temperatures in the earth's crust. Now rare.

1947 Times 1 Aug. 5/7 The obscure problem of the radium content of the substratum beneath the sediment will be tackled with a geothermometer of special construction, inserted into the depost.

2. A feature of a rock (typically a mineral or mineral assemblage) from which is inferred the temperature of its formation.
