Stevenson screen
instrument shelter

A special type of Stevenson screen with an eye bolt on the roof is used on a ship.

It is normally attached to a Stevenson screen but may be mounted in other areas away from any artificial heat sources.

When this problem was realized the Stevenson screen was introduced, typically installed in gardens, away from buildings.

The traditional Stevenson Screen is a box shape, constructed of wood, in a double-louvered design.

In particular, the thermometer must be housed in a Stevenson screen (a white box with slats to let air flow though).

In some areas the use of single unit automatic weather stations is supplanting the Stevenson screen (and other stand-alone meteorological equipment).

Firstly, the Stevenson screen is an instrument designed by Robert Louis Stevenson's father.

Located at the South East corner of Victoria Park is a weather station containing a Stevenson screen.

This included a Stevenson screen, office guttering, a HF radio antennae, signal processor, and satellite receiver.

On land, temperature sensors are kept in a Stevenson screen or a maximum minimum temperature system (MMTS).

The Stevenson screen holds instruments that may include thermometers (ordinary, maximum/minimum), a hygrometer, a psychrometer, a dewcell, a barometer and a thermograph.

Stevenson screens may also be known as a cotton region shelter, an instrument shelter, a thermometer shelter, a thermoscreen or a thermometer screen.

The Stevenson screen must be placed on grassy ground, more than 25m from any area of concrete, and no more than half the land within 100m may be built up.

Many of the stations are equipped with a Stevenson screen and Snowdon Raingauge, while some include Campbell-Stokes recorder for measuring sunshine and an Anemometer.

A Stevenson screen or instrument shelter is an enclosure to shield meteorological instruments against precipitation and direct heat radiation from outside sources, while still allowing air to circulate freely around them.

Meteorological observatories measure the temperature and humidity of the air near the surface of the Earth usually using thermometers placed in a Stevenson screen, a standardized well-ventilated white-painted instrument shelter.

Thomas Stevenson (1818-1887) was a pioneering Scottish lighthouse designer and meteorologist, who designed over thirty lighthouses in and around Scotland, as well as the Stevenson screen used in meteorology.

The cottage cluster includes the two 1933 cottages, one for the head lightkeeper and one for his assistant, a weather shack, a garage, a workshop/store, service pits, a flag pole, and a Stevenson screen.

As Bourn was such a new station, we only had the bare essentials in the way of equipment, mainly the Stevenson Screen with its thermometers, an aneroid barometer in the office and the aforementioned teleprinter.

Except for those instruments requiring direct exposure to the elements (anemometer, rain gauge), the instruments should be sheltered in a vented box, usually a Stevenson screen, to keep direct sunlight off the thermometer and wind off the hygrometer.

Other structures include the old and new power houses, a garage, a workshop/store, a helipad, a flagpole, rainwater tanks, a solar powerhouse for hot water, weather recording equipment in a Stevenson screen, and remnants of a Tramway and a winch house for the now removed flying fox.

This would have been the hottest temperature ever recorded in the city-although it has never been an official record, as there is no evidence the temperature was actually measured in full shade and the Stevenson screen had not yet been used in Australia so it was a non standard measurement.

Stevenson screens may also be known as a cotton region shelter, an instrument shelter, a thermometer shelter, a thermoscreen or a thermometer screen.

It contains Shackleton's Hut, built in February 1908, as well as stables, kennels, a latrine, a garage for what was the first motor vehicle in Antarctica, an instrument shelter, supply depots and a rubbish site.

The "Cotton Region Shelter" (it might be better known as an instrument shelter) is a wooden shelter built to stand approximately four feet above the ground and constructed with slats to allow for airflow but to protect instruments from precipitation and solar radiation.
