An indicator describing the physical state of water or air, i.e. the average kinetic energy of molecules, usually expressed in degrees Celsius (°C) or Kelvin (K)
Shows environmental or water conditions that affect chemical, biological and physical processes
Water temperature directly affects the amount of dissolved oxygen, the stability of ecosystems and the viability of organisms
Air temperature determines climate conditions, working environment and the efficiency of technological processes
In occupational health and safety assessments (work environment control, comfort conditions)
In the control of industrial objects (technological processes, combustion efficiency, cooling systems)
In environmental studies (assessment of the condition of water bodies, climate change monitoring, air quality analysis)
