E. carried with a weather balloon


Sagot :

Match each weather instrument with its description.

  1. weather maps/satellite - used to help track air masses and fronts
  2. Doppler radar - uses frequency waves to track particle movement
  3. radiosonde - carried with a weather balloon
  4. wind vane - points in the direction winds are coming from
  5. psychrometer - uses two thermometers; a dry and wet bulb

Answer: The correct matching sequence is:

1 -D , 2-C, 3-E, 4-B , 5-A

Explanation:

Weather maps/satellite:These are the satellites used to monitor the climate on the Earth in day and night.Like moc=vment of clouds, El Nino. La Nina ertc

Doppler radar  is a system used to track the velocity or motion of the rain , storm or precipitation.It emit microwave signals to check the change in frequency of the wave due to the motion of the particles.

Radiosonde is an instrument carried away by balloon or any other means into different layers of atmosphere and sends information via radio.

Wind vane is an instrument used to show the direction of the wind. P

Psychrometer  is an instrument used to measure atmospheric humidity.It consist of two thermometer that is wet bulb thermometer and dry bulb thermometer.
