Elements of weather and climate

The elements of weather and climate are the measurable atmospheric conditions used to describe the state of the atmosphere and the long-term pattern of that state. For examination purposes, you must know the main elements, how each is measured or expressed, and how they combine to influence agricultural activities such as crop growth, irrigation need, and field operations.
