barograph

Device for recording variations in atmospheric pressure. A pen, governed by the movements of an aneroid barometer, makes a continuous line on a paper strip on a cylinder that rotates over a day or week to create a barogram, or permanent record of variations in atmospheric pressure. Some instruments record the measurements in the form of electronic data that can be readily processed by a computer.
