Le géothermomètre est semblable au thermomètre ordinaire sauf que sa tige est recourbée à 90°. Son réservoir est enfoncé dans le sol (5 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm) alors que l'autre partie de la tige repose à plat sur le sol. 6, record 1, French, - g%C3%A9othermom%C3%A8tre

Il est également intéressant de connaître la température du sol en surface et dans le sol. [...] Dans le sol : Le géothermomètre est aussi un instrument à dilatation d'alcool. La partie inférieure (réservoir) est placée dans le sol, (à une profondeur de 5 cm pour le nôtre). 7, record 1, French, - g%C3%A9othermom%C3%A8tre
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Les différentes profondeurs de mesure recommandées par l'Organisation Météorologique Mondiale sont 5, 10, 20, 50 et 100 centimètres sous la surface naturelle. Alors que les variations nycthémérales de la température sont sensibles jusqu'à une vingtaine de centimètres de profondeur et peuvent donc justifier l'utilisation de thermomètres à minimum et à maximum, il n'en est plus de même à partir de cinquante centimètres de profondeur. 2, record 1, French, - g%C3%A9othermom%C3%A8tre
