For Temperature we have terms and definitions in 10 topics. The topics are Climatology, Energy, Food Industry, Hydrology, Natural Gas, Physical Geography, Plastics, Satellite Meteorology, Science and Weather.

Temperature (Climatology)

The degree of hotness or coldness as measured on some definite temperature scale

Temperature (Energy)

Degree of hotness or coldness measured on one of several arbitrary scales based on some observable phenomenon (such as the expansion).

Temperature (Food Industry)

Temperature is a measure of the amount of heat within a substance. The higher the temperature the greater the amount of heat or internal motion in the substance. Microbes need some heat for growth but too much heat is fatal to them.
See danger zone and microbes.

Temperature (Hydrology)

Average kinetic energy of a substance measured in degrees.

Temperature (Natural Gas)

The degree of "hotness" or "coldness" as measured on a definite scale.

Temperature (Physical Geography)

Temperature is defined as the measure of the average speed of atoms and molecules. The higher the temperature the faster they move.

Temperature (Plastics)

An average value is given rather than the temperature range often specified by the manufacturer.

Temperature (Satellite Meteorology)

In an ideal gas, the average kinetic energy of its molecules.
Terrestial radiation. See Longwave radiation

Temperature (Science)

A measure of how rapidly the molecules of a substance are moving about

Temperature (Weather)

The measure of molecular motion or the degree of heat of a substance. It is measured on an arbitrary scale from absolute zero, where the molecules theoretically stop moving. It is also the degree of hotness or coldness. In surface observations, it refers primarily to the free air or ambient temperature close to the surface of the earth. View Current Tempurature at MNSU
