Abstract | ||||
Water in Jordan is chronic problem due to the incremental demand and shortage of resources. This effect is so clear not only for drinking, but for domestic, industries, and agriculture uses. Evaporation considers the major cause of loss of hydrological cycle and stored water, which needs more study and more tools and technology in order to decrease the turn of this parameter within specific place and specific methodology. Meteorological stations are the suitable places for instillation various equipments of measurement of solar radiation, temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, and precipitation. But, it differs in size, objects, and distance between each other. Isra station was selected to be used for studying hydrology and metrology parameters at the campus and surround area by researches through available means at the present time and others in the future after it's obtained. | ||||
