Brooks-Range Scientist 200 Snow Density Gauge 1651,

The Brooks-Range Scientist Snow Density Gauge 200 is a compact and highly accurate device modeled on the gauge currently in use by the National Weather Service. It accurately measures water density using a simple mass balance scale based calibrated to a sample size of 200 cubic centimeters (cc). The Scientist 200 is compact, lightweight, corrosion resistant, and unaffected by altitude. It is the perfect compromise between laboratory precision and rugged simplicity in a small, convenient, and easy-to-use design. Snow density measurements are accurate to within 1% to the trained eye, with a scale reading from 0% to 60% in 5% increments. Snow scientists, avalanche forecasters and observers, backcountry travelers and skiers can all use the Pocket Snow Density Gauge to assess the quality of new snow, the rate of snow metamorphosis, snow pit data, precipitation rates, slab conditions, and snow pack moisture content.
