SUNSHINE

Duration of sunshine is measured using Campbell stokes sunshine recorder.

How It Works

  • Spherical lens focuses light on sensitized paper.
  • The paper burns when the sun is shining.
  • The total hours of sunshine is got by adding all the burnt sections from calibrations on the side of sensitized paper.
  • The sensitized paper is changed every day.
