Thermistor thermometer

From Glossary of Meteorology



thermistor thermometer

A device for estimating temperature based on a known relationship of its electrical resistance to temperature.

The term "thermistor" is more specific than the term "resistance thermometer" because it implies that the material has been selected for a strong temperature dependence to simplify the determination of temperature.
See thermistor.
