Field exercise: record temperature and humidity morning, noon and evening for a week
So far you have learnt thresholds. This exercise makes you produce your own figures: a week of temperature and humidity readings, three times a day, at three points in the house and outside, on a sheet you fill in yourself. At the end, you will know whether your house heats up more than outside, where its hot zone is, whether it cools down in the evening, and what the birds really feel. It is the first job asked of a technician arriving on a farm.
