Egypt's Sphinx: WeatherMonitoring
项目概况
应用类型：气象站为文化保护和复原提供数据 位置：Giza plateau, about six miles west of Cairo, Egypt 测量参数：风速，风向，空气温度，相对湿度，降水，太阳辐射
A Campbell Scientific weather station, installed on the back ofthe Sphinx in May of 1990, provided environmental data needed forthe restoration and preservation of the ancient structure.Parameters measured by the station include wind speed anddirection, air temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation.Data after a year of monitoring indicated greater fluctuation inrelative humidity and air temperature than had been expected. Thestation also measured higher-than-expected wind speeds and helpedidentify northwest winds as the main source of winderosion.
