Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 The accurate measurement of sea surface temperature is of great importance for meteorology. The most common method of measuring the temperature of the sea surface is by the ‘bucket method’ in which a suitably designed bucket is lowered into the sea and a sample of sea water from the surface is collected; the temperature of the sample is measured as quickly as possible with a sea surface thermometer enclosed in a metal sheath.
2 This standard was originally published in 1972. And in this first revision, Kerosene oil as a thermometric liquid has been added. A sampling plan for lot testing has been prescribed and several editorial changes such as the inclusion of the Reference clause, Hindi Title, ICS no, BIS certification marking clause, etc. have also been incorporated.
