The clear plastic precipitation chamber should

be removed from the cube and placed in an

open area away from any overhead obstruc-

tions.

You can check the gauge at the end of each

day. The chamber will measure rain and snow.

One interesting fact is that snow has ten times

the volume of rain, so if ten inches (25.4 cm)

of snow falls, it is the equivalent of just one

inch (2.54 cm) of rain.

4. Cube Placement

The cubes in your set have been made so that

they can be moved and joined together in va-

rious combinations. You might want to place

the different cubes in different places, or try

them all together in one place.

Please note, cube 1, the anemometer and

wind vane, must always be at the top, as the

wind cups need freedom to rotate and cannot

be blocked by obstructions.

5. The Weather

Climate

The Climate is often spoken about at the

same time as weather, but is something quite

different. The climate is the common, average

weather conditions at a particular place over

a long period of time (for example, more than

30 years). We learn about different climates

around the world. Deserts have a hot and dry

climate while the Antarctic has a very cold and

dry climate.

Atmosphere

The atmosphere is needed to sustain life and

vital to living organisms It is a gaseous envelo-

pe of air that surrounds the earth. The atmos-

phere of the earth is about 1.000 to 3.000

km thick and consists of a mixture of gases.

The atmosphere is bound by the gravitational

ﬁ eld of the earth.

Wind

Wind is air in motion. It is produced by the

uneven heating of the earth’s surface by the

sun. Since the earth’s surface is made of va-

rious land and water formations, it absorbs the

sun’s radiation unevenly. Two factors are ne-

cessary to measure wind: speed and direction.

As the sun warms the earth’s surface, the

atmosphere warms too. Some parts of the

earth receive direct rays from the sun all year

and are always warm. Other places receive

indirect rays, so the climate is colder. Warm

air, which is lighter than cold air, rises. Cool

air moves in and replaces the rising warm air.

This movement of air is what makes the wind

blow.

Rain

Water droplets form from warm air. As the

warm air rises in the sky it cools. Water va-

pour (invisible water in the air) always exists

in our air. Warm air holds quite a bit of water.

For example, in the summer it is usually very

humid. When enough of these droplets coll-

ect together, we see them as clouds. If the

clouds are big enough and have enough wa-

ter droplets, the droplets bang together and

form even bigger drops. When the drops get

heavy, they fall because of gravity, and you

see and feel rain.
