Comparison of precipitation totals measured by the automatic telepluviometer and the Hellmann rain gauge at the Warsaw Ursynów station in 2000–2010

Abstract

Popularization of automatic methods of measuring meteorological elements and substituting manual methods creates a problem of maintaining homogeneity of measurement series. In such situations it is necessary to conduct measurements simultaneously, i.e. using a method being introduced and a former method. The analysis of measurement series carried out simultaneously enables comparing and relating measurements made by a new apparatus to already existing results. The present paper includes the results of the analysis of differences between daily, monthly and seasonal atmospheric precipitation values coming from a 11-year series of simultaneous measurements with a telepluviometer and a Hellman rain gauge.
