Marine meteorology; Solar radiationAbstract
Several different types of solar radiation air temperature shields are evaluated for use at
sea on ships and buoys. They include three types of static or Thaller shields, two vane
oriented shields, and two fan ventilated shields. A preliminary data analysis is presented and
discussed.
