Scope:
AIMS
The Aims of this Agreement are:
a. To describe the principal climatic factors which constitute the
distinctive climatic environments found throughout the world, excluding
Antarctica.
b. To identify each of these distinctive climatic environments in
terms of categories of temperature and humidity conditions and to state
in which areas of the world each category occurs.
c. To establish standard descriptions of ambient air temperature,
humidity and direct solar radiation for each of these categories in
terms of diurnal and annual variations.
d. To recommend in particular, diurnal cycles of temperature, humidity
and direct solar radiation for use in determining design criteria.
e. To identify the other climatic factors which are significant in
each climatic category.
f. To recommend the intensities of these other climatic factors which
should be considered when evaluating the total effect of climate upon
the materiel.
g. To state how the values of the climatic factors wary with altitude.
h. To quote the most intense values ever reliably recorded for each
climatic factor.
j. To provide guidance on the drafting of the climatic environmental
clauses of requirements documents.
This Agreement does not prescribe tests or trials schedules, nor does it
discuss all the possible effects of adverse climatic conditions upon
materiel.
