Relating to measuring water flow and levels in rivers and lakes

measures temperature and fluid properties rather than focusing on flow

Surface Forms

thermohydrometric positive

Morphology

thermohydrometric = hydrometric (semi-transparent) = thermo + hydro + metric

The immediate step from hydrometric to thermohydrometric is a regular prefixation with thermo-, adding the idea of heat to an already compositional base.

Etymology

The word thermohydrometric breaks into thermo- 'heat', as in thermometer, hydro- 'water', as in hydrant, and -metric 'measure'. So, a thermohydrometric device or study is one that measures temperature and other properties of water.
