ABSTRACT The study describes significant outcomes of the ‘Metrology for Meteorology’ project, MeteoMet , which is an attempt to bridge meteorological and metrological communities. concept traceability, idea used in both fields but with a subtle difference meaning, at heart project. For meteorology, traceable measurement one that can be traced back particular instrument, time location. From perspective, traceability further implies primary realization quantity being measured terms base units...
