The dry and wet bulb temperatures are measured using psychrometers. Most common are those using two mercury thermometers, one of them having the bulb covered with a wick saturated with distilled water, and which measures a temperature lowered due to the evaporative cooling. When they are naturally ventilated inside a shelter, problems can arise if air flow is not sufficient to maintain an appropriate evaporation rate and associated cooling.

Record number: 12, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A valley breeze develops during the day as the sun heats the land surface and air at the valley bottom and sides... As the air heats it becomes less dense and buoyant and begins to flow gently up the valley sides. Vertical ascent of the air rising along the sides of the mountain is usually limited by the presence of a temperature inversion layer. When the ascending air currents encounter the inversion they are forced to move horizontally and then back down to the valley floor. This creates a self-contained circulation system. If conditions are right, the rising air can condense and form into cumuliform clouds. 3, record 12, English, - valley%20breeze

Soils can be contaminated either naturally by volatilization and diffusion, or provoked by the forced circulation of air. Transfers of gaseous ammonia and radon-222 are more useful for analysing aerated soils where the structural pore space plays a predominant role. 3, record 13, English, - structural%20pore%20space

The Working Group on Numerical Experimentation(WGNE), jointly established by the Joint Scientific Committee on the WCRP and the WMO Commission for Atmospheric Sciences(CAS) has the responsibility of fostering the development of atmospheric circulation models for use in weather prediction and climate studies on all time scales and diagnosing shortcomings. WGNE promotes co-ordinated numerical experimentation for validating model results, observed atmospheric properties, exploring the natural and forced variability and predictability of the atmosphere,(e. g the Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project, AMIP), as well as studies aimed at refined numerical techniques, and the formulation of atmospheric physics processes. WGNE also monitors the advances in data assimilation and analysis methods and is the focal point in WCRP for encouraging and reviewing the reanalysis projects carried out at various centres with fixed state-of-the-art assimilation systems providing a multi-year homogenous data set for a range of atmospheric and climate diagnostic studies. 2, record 14, English, - Working%20Group%20on%20Numerical%20Experimentation

Forced circulation boilers in which the boiler water is forced through the generating tubes by a pump that takes its suction from the water drum.

Circulation naturelle. Dans ce type de chaudière, l'eau provenant d'un réservoir placé à la partie supérieure descend dans des tubes non chauffés et remonte dans des tubes vaporisateurs chauffés. L'émulsion d'eau et de vapeur qui se forme dans ces tubes retourne au réservoir où la vapeur est séparée, l'eau étant renvoyée aux tubes chauffés, additionnée d'une quantité d'eau d'appoint égale à la quantité de vapeur produite. La circulation est assurée par la différence de poids entre deux colonnes de fluide, l'une contenant de l'eau, l'autre un mélange d'eau et de vapeur. [...] la circulation est d'autant plus intense que la différence de masse volumique entre l'eau et la vapeur est plus grande. 2, record 15, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20circulation%20naturelle

Gravity furnaces have the air passages through the casing and over the heat exchanger more generously proportioned so that the buoyancy force created by the air being warmed furnishes the motive power to circulate the air through the ducts.
