3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What method would you use for estimating mean precipitation in a uniformly rainy region?
Think about simple averaging.
Define the Thiessen Polygon Method.
Consider why proximity matters.
What is the preferred method in regions with uniform rainfall?
Think about averaging conditions.
True or False: The Isohyetal Method is most suitable for uniform rainfall conditions.
Recall the characteristics of this method.
A region experiences significant rainfall variability, with gauges showing values of 5mm, 20mm, and 40mm within a small area. Determine the best estimation method to use and justify your choice.
Consider which method best handles uneven distribution.
You have a network of 10 rain gauges in a large area. Evaluate the implications of your gauge selection and distribution choice using the Thiessen Polygon Method.
Think about how gauge distances affect the polygon areas.
