The automatic recording rain gauge indicates each time there is a rainfall of at least 0.01", hence one may know not only how much rain fell during the day, but also exactly when it rained and the amount every five minutes. 1, record 1, English, - automatic%20recording%20rain%20gauge

Rainfall and throughfall were measured for each rainfall event during the monsoon season (June-September) using an automatic raingauge and 96 graduated containers, respectively. 3, record 1, English, - automatic%20recording%20rain%20gauge

In many instances the design problem does not require the accuracy, nor warrant the time involved to apply the more sophisticated infiltration approach to determine the net storm rain. For these cases, short-cut "index methods" will give acceptable results with less work. 1, record 3, English, - index%20method

Dans plusieurs cas, la conception d’un projet n’ exige pas de précision et ne justifie pas le temps requis à l'application de méthodes d’infiltration plus sophistiquées en vue de déterminer la hauteur nette de pluie. Dans ce cas "les méthodes des indices" permettront d’aller au plus court et aboutiront à des résultats acceptables avec moins de travail. 1, record 3, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20des%20indices
