Life very much got in the way of updating this blog in the last few weeks so I apologise for being unable to post!
Over the last two weeks the rain gauges that I constructed (see Measuring Precipitation - Making my Rain Gauges) have been outside collecting rainfall, although it was typical that not much happened at all!
The Results over the 2 week period are as follows:
Gauge 1: The Daily Mean Precipitation for week 1 totals 0.4mm ± 0.5
Gauge 2: The Daily Mean Precipitation for week 1 totals 0.7mm ± 0.5
Gauge 1: Mean Daily Precipitation for week 2 totals 0mm ± 0.5
Gauge 2: Mean Daily Precipitation for week 2 totals 0mm ± 0.5
Therefore the mean daily precipitation over a two week period using these results for gauge 1 totals 0.2mm ± 0.5 and for gauge 2 totals 0.4mm ± 0.5 .
Not a lot of rainfall at all! Over the next week I have to write a summary of my experiment for use in my TMA (Tutor Marked Assignment) so expect more ramblings on measuring precipitation!
