Background

In this activity, you will measure and record the air temperature at different out-
door locations within a small area to investigate how ground cover and nearby 
objects affect air temperature.

Before You Begin

Start a new experiment on the GLX.

1.

Press 

 to go to the Home Screen.

2.

Use the arrow keys to highlight the Data Files icon and press 

 to open 

the Data Files screen.

3.

Press 

 to open the Files menu and press 

 to select New File.

4.

When the GLX asks if you would like to save the previous file, press 

 

to save or 

 not to save.

Procedure

Preparation

Sketch a map of the area you will be investigating. Mark several locations on the 
map and assign each a different short name. For each location, note the type of 
ground cover (concrete, grass, bare earth, etc.) and nearby objects, such as build-
ings or trees.

GLX Set-Up

1.

Connect a temperature probe.

a)

Connect a fast-response temperature probe to one of the temperature 

ports on the left side of the GLX.

b)

If there are other sensors connected to the GLX, remove them.

2.

Put the GLX into Manual Sampling mode.

a)

Press 

 to return to the Home Screen; press 

 to open the Sensors 

screen.

b)

Press 

 to open the Mode menu.
