A specialized instrument designed to measure the intensity or characteristics of baroclinic storm systems and cyclones in the atmosphere.
From 'baro-' (pressure) + 'cyclone' (from Greek 'kyklon,' spinning) + '-meter' (measuring instrument). A compound technical term created to describe a tool for measuring pressure-driven storm systems.
This is such a wonderfully specific scientific instrument—it's basically a device designed specifically to measure one of nature's most chaotic phenomena: spinning storm systems!
