An instrument that measures or detects the presence and amount of dew.
From Greek 'drosos' (dew) and 'metron' (measure), literally 'dew-measurer,' a scientific instrument for quantifying condensation.
A drosometer is so specific that almost nobody uses one anymore, but farmers once relied on them to predict frost and know when to protect crops—it's a forgotten tool of agricultural wisdom!
