Type of temperature measurement From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wet-bulb potential temperature, sometimes referred to as pseudo wet-bulb potential temperature, is the temperature that a parcel of air at any level would have if, starting at the wet-bulb temperature, it were brought at the saturated adiabatic lapse rate to the standard pressure of 1,000 mbar.
This temperature is conservative with respect to reversible adiabatic changes.
