Solid-precipitation (snowfall) measurement intercomparison, Bismarck, North Dakota
Douglas G. Emerson, Kathleen M. Macek-Rowland
1990, Open-File Report 90-124
Difficulties involved in obtaining accurate measurements of solid precipitation (snowfall) have been recognized for many years. Many studies have been conducted to evaluate the accuracy and performance of precipitation gages. These studies show that the type of collection method used can significantly affect the quantity of precipitation measured. Although the...
