Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A tiltmeter measures tilting or deformation in the ground, which can indicate swelling or movement within a volcano. An anemometer measures wind speed, a seismograph measures earthquakes or ground vibrations, and a ceilometer measures cloud height. While a frightened graduate student may be a humorous addition, they do not serve as a scientific tool for detecting volcanic activity.
