Wind speed measurement has long been a cornerstone of meteorological observation, renewable energy assessment and aeronautical research. The performance of anemometers—devices designed to accurately ...

Looking for a reliable home weather station that fits your needs? We tested a range of weather stations to see how well they measured temperature, wind speed, barometric pressure, and more.

According to experts, the best home weather stations include La Crosse, AcuRite Iris, Ambient Weather WS-2000, and WS-2902.

UCSC engineer Javier Gonzalez-Rocha is using drones and sensors to bring advanced air quality monitoring to underserved ...

With just a few simple steps, you can measure temperature, rain totals and wind speed from your own home or business. WRAL meteorologist Kat Campbell explains how to build your own weather station, ...

Researchers have developed a way to use a kite itself to measure wind speed. The instrument consists of a 2-meter-long and 1-meter-wide Rokkaku-type kite. Kites have a storied history in ...

Researchers have developed a new remote sensing instrument based on light detection and ranging that could offer a simple and robust way to accurately measure wind speed, which could help scientists ...

A new fiber-optic laser system can measure wind speed and direction up to 1000 meters in front of a wind turbine, giving the massive machines enough precious seconds to proactively adapt to gusts and ...

Sometimes when we look at a hack, its to see how someone chose those parts for the project. In this case, it would have been hard to see it coming. [Janne Jansson] decided to combine a set of ...
