- Slide 13
- is a hygrometer and thermograph combination and records both relative humidity and temperature on a graph paper. Hygrothermograph
- Slide 14
- Hygrometer is an instrument used to measure the moisture content of a gas, as in determining the relative humidity of air.

- is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that falls under gravity. The main forms of precipitation include drizzle, rain, sleet, snow, graupel and hail. It occurs when a local portion of the atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapour and the water condenses.
