Each group is given three thermometers either alcohol or mercury thermometer of different brands. A GPS device to determine the accurate area and elevation area of the experiment. Three thermometers were given to each group one thermometer to determine the area’s temperature and the two other thermometers are used to determine the relative humidity of the area. In determining the temperature hold the thermometer above your head for three minutes and then read the result, allow the thermometer to stand for about two minutes before getting the next reading. Due to the unavailability of the sling psychrometer regular thermometers were used in determining the relative humidity. One thermometer have a wet bulb , the bulb of the thermometer have a wet tissue or cotton while the other thermometer have a dry bulb and both were moved in a waving motion for two minutes and read the results after reading let the thermometers stand for two minutes before getting the next reading. The said procedures are repeated every thirty
