The KU weather station
The weather station
Since November 2016, the new KU weather station is recording meteorological data at one-minute intervals. This weather station supplements the research activities around the campus and in Eichstätt.
The measured parameters include temperature and humidity of air and ground, precipitation, wind direction and wind speed, air pressure and solar radiation. The parameters are measured following the standards of the German Meteorological Office (DWD).
In the context of seminars, this weather station is used to demonstrate meteorological measuring principles and provides underlying data for Bachelor's and Master's theses. The other station at the Seminargärtnerei can further be used e.g. as portable station for field seminars.
