Advection

The horizontal transfer of any property in the atmosphere by the movement of air. Examples include heat and moisture advection. Air
This is considered the misture of gases that make up the earth's atmosphere. The principle gases that compose dry air are Nitrogen at 78.084%, Oxygen at 20.946%, Argon at .93%, and Carbon Dioxide .03% Airmass
An extensive body of air throughout which the horizontal temperature and moisture characteristics are similar. ASOS
Acronym for Automated Surace Observing Systen. This system is a collection of automated surface weather instruments that collect data. It performs surface observations in places that either do not have a human observer, or an observer 24-hours a day. B Barometer
An instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. Examples include the aneroid barometer and the mercurial barometer.

    ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY
    A type of humidity that considers the mass of water vapor present per unit volume of space. Also considered as the density of the water vapor. It is usually expressed in grams per cubic meter.
    ABSOLUTE INSTABILITY
    When the lapse rate of a column of air is greater than the dry adiabatic lapse rate. The term absolute is used because this applies whether or not the air is dry or saturated
    Related term: instability
    ABSOLUTE TEMPERATURE SCALE
    A temperature scale with a freezing point boiling point
    Related term: Kelvin Temperature Scale
    ABSOLUTE ZERO
    Considered to be the point at which theoretically no molecular activity exists or the temperature Kelvin Celsius Fahrenheit
    ABSORPTION
    The process in which incident radiant energy is retained by a substance. The absorbed radiation is then transformed into molecular energy.
