Description: (British Meteorologist Who Devised Instruments for Measuring Atmospheric Properties)
William Henry Dines was a distinguished English meteorologist recognized for his groundbreaking research in atmospheric science. He played a key role in advancing meteorological instrumentation, with a focus on studying wind forces and upper air phenomena. Dines developed cutting-edge tools like the Dines pressure-tube anemometer, meteorograph for balloon use, and the microbarograph. His influential contributions to upper atmospheric meteorology are documented in numerous papers, and he held leadership roles in scientific organizations. Dines' impact endures through his sons, who followed in his footsteps as meteorologists.
