Innovative spiral design of the MeteoShield® Professional begins sea trials on buoys

Marine buoy radiative heating errors to be prevented by the helical MeteoShield® Professional

MeteoShield® Professional begun sea borne testing on marine buoys in the Asia Pacific region last week. Compared to existing multi-plate solar radiation shield technologies and even fan-aspirated shields, it offers a significant improvement in all weather precision for air temperature and air humidity measurement. Compared to fan-aspirated shields, it has the added benefit of superior reliability.

This advantage in measurement precision is hoped to make a significant contribution to the quality of climatological measurements and is poised to increase confidence and precision in quantifying global warming and its associated climatic changes to the region.
