Screw the ground spike into the bottom of

the cube and place in an open area outside.

Make sure the spike is inserted ﬁ rmly into the

ground.

3.1 Cube 1 – The Wind Gauge

(Anemometer) and Wind Vane

This cube measures the wind speed in both

miles per hour (mph) and kilometres per hour

(kph).

To assemble your wind gauge (anemome-

ter), place the small end of the three spoon-

shaped wind cups into position, as they will

only ﬁ t in one direction and will slip easily into

place. Please see the image on page 1 for

reference.

Wind and temperature are very closely rela-

ted. The process of air being warmed and

circulated is called convection and is one of

the major processes creating our weather.

Convection is the main cause of cloud for-

mation and circulation, warm moist air goes

upwards and gets colder, dry and dense air

sinks downwards.

Some places get hotter, quicker than others.

For example, cities heat up more quickly than

open countryside. These processes create

changing convection patterns, which causes

different air motion, or wind.

The same thing happens at our planet’s po-

les, on a much bigger scale, with the North

and South poles not absorbing much of the

sun’s heat, whilst on the equator, the land

absorbs more heat. The hot air rises and the

cooler polar air rushes in to replace it.

All these factors add up to generate winds.

When your anemometer is set up outside, the

wind will make the three cups spin. The need-

le will indicate the wind speed and the wind

will point in the direction from where the wind

is blowing.

3.2 Cube 2 – The Thermometer

A thermometer measures the temperature of

the air. There are two different measures for

temperature. In the United States, the Fah-

renheit scale is used. ° is the symbol used

to show degrees. On the Fahrenheit scale,

water freezes at 32° and the boiling point of

water is 212°. Fahrenheit temperatures are

indicated by a F after the number of degrees.

The rest of the world uses the Celsius sca-

le. On this scale, water freezes at 0° and the

boiling point of water is 100°. Celsius tempe-

ratures are indicated by a C after the number

of degrees.

3.3 Cube 3 – The Precipitation Gauge

Cube 3 is used to measure precipitation,

which is the scientiﬁ c term for rain or snow.

This is moisture that comes from the sky.
