Rain gauge for measuring liquid precipitation over a set period of time.
All SNOTEL sites measure snow water content, accumulated precipitation, and air temperature.
They are keeping weather journals, making cloud charts and measuring precipitation.
A rain gauge is an instrument used by meteorologists and hydrologists to measure precipitation in a certain amount of time.
Although rainfall was primarily concentrated in the Carolinas, 1,434 official rain gauges measured precipitation in coastal areas from South Carolina to Maine.
In the future, NASA and its international partners are to join the hunt for giant snowflakes with satellites that measure global precipitation, including snowfall.
His research validated the feasibility of measuring the preserved annual snow accumulation cycles, like measuring frozen precipitation in a rain gauge.
Due to the difficulty in measuring precipitation, it has been important to constrain these observations by analyzing other related variables.
On top of the mast, a compact weather radar was installed in 2007, measuring precipitation up to a radius of 60 km around the mast.
They measure humidity, temperature, air pressure, wind speed and direction, precipitation, radiation, and the ozone and carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere.
