An instrument that records information about dew or moisture conditions, similar to a thermograph.
From Greek 'drosos' (dew) and 'graphia' (writing/recording), describing a device that graphically records dew formation.
Drosographs are relatively obscure instruments, but they were crucial for early meteorologists trying to understand how dew forms—essentially prehistoric weather stations for studying one tiny phenomenon!
