Sensor Calibration and Quality Assurance Procedures

Rain Gauge

Equipment:

  • Hyrdological Services TB4 Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge S/N 02-192
  • Funneled Rain Bucket with Graduated Staff

Procedure:
After a rain shower, the amount of water collected in the funneled rain bucket is measured with the graduated staff.  This value is used to check the amount of rainfall recorded by the tipping bucket rain gauge.  After measurement, the bucket is emptied to prevent later comparisons from being affected by residual water in the bucket.
