21 WMO Survey of Calibration of Meteorological Instruments in RA II Questionnaire on Meteorological Instruments, Calibration and Training in Regional Association II (Asia) Member : RIC Tsukuba, RIC Beijing, RRC Tokyo, RRC Pune Date:12 December 2011 Survey on Meteorological Instruments, Calibration and Training, Regional Association II (Asia), WMO IOM Report No publications-iom-series.html
22 WMO Survey on meteorological instruments, calibration and training in RA II Pressure Temperature National meteorological standards 16 National meteorological standards 14 Superior standards (traceable to international standard) 9 Superior standards (traceable to international standard) 6 Traveling standards 12 Traveling standards 9 Maintenance of standards and traceability to an international standard (N = 21) Mercury barometers Electronic barometers Pressure balances(dead weight testers) Platinum resistance thermometers Liquid-in-glass thermometers 5 7 Others 2 Others 4 Instrument type/method used for national meteorological standards Meteorological instrument calibration was not conducted properly in many cases; fewer than half of the Members responding to the questionnaire had national meteorological standards that were traceable to international standards. Conventional instruments such as mercury barometers and liquid-in-glass thermometers were still used rather than electrical instruments for most meteorological parameters in operational use. (N = 21)
23 Traceability in meteorological instruments Non radiation International Standard (SI unit) National Primary Standard (National metrology institute) Temperature, Humidity, Pressure, Radiation WMO standard RRC(Regional Radiation Centre) standard National meteorological standard National meteorological standard NMHS Working standards NMHS Working standards Working instruments (Observation sites) Working instruments (Observation sites)
