BLACK SPHERICAL 



ATMOMETER CUPS 



This is a porous porcelain sphere with matt black surface. The 

 dimensions and other specifications correspond to those of the white 

 spherical cup. The black spheres are sold only in the standardized 

 condition, being calibrated in terms of the spherical standard. They 

 may be operated with standardized white spheres for the measure- 

 ment of solar radiation, or may be used alone for the measurement 

 of evaporation in any work involving the rates from dark surfaces. 



For literature on the use of the Black Spherical Atmometer Cup

 "Atmometry and the Poious Cup Atmometer."
