What does a rain gauge network measure?
Think about what we are trying to measure with rain gauges.
What does co-efficient of variation (Cv) indicate?
Consider how variation relates to average measurements.
What is the primary goal of designing an optimum rain gauge network?
Consider what we are trying to achieve with the network.
True or False: Implementing the network in one go is more effective than a staged implementation.
Think about flexibility in design.
Design a rain gauge network for a mountainous region with significant rainfall variability. Outline the number of gauges needed and the rationale behind your placements.
Keep in mind the recommended density for mountainous regions.
A new rain gauge is installed, but initial readings show a discrepancy with nearby gauges. Use double mass curve analysis concepts to evaluate the data consistency.
What does a break in the curve signify?
