Weighing gauges are most useful in areas with frequent snow, since they measure any form of precipitation simply by weighing on a balance whatever falls into a pail. The downward motion of the pail as it fills with precipitation is transmitted to a recording chart on a clock-turned drum. Many of these gauges are equipped with a funnel which can be removed to permit the snow to fall directly into the pail. If accuracy of the snowfall measurements is important, the gauge should, of course, be shielded.  5, record 4, English, - weighing%20rain%20gauge

The two types of automatic rain gages used in the County are weighing buckets and tipping buckets. Most of the rainfall records in the County are collected with weighing bucket gages. A weighing bucket consists of a collection bucket for receiving and storing the precipitation, a weighing device for measurement, and an indicating dial to display, in inches, precipitation gathered by the collector. The weighing bucket mechanically converts the depth of accumulated precipitation during a given period (5 or 15 minutes), to a code disk position. This code disk position is recorded on punched paper tape at the selected intervals.  8, record 4, English, - weighing%20rain%20gauge

A tipping bucket rain gage consists of a funnel and a rocker mechanism with two little "buckets" on it, located underneath the funnel. When rain falls into the funnel, it fills one of the little buckets on the rocker mechanism. Once a given amount of rain falls into the funnel, usually 0.01 inches, the rocker "tips" over, emptying one of the buckets and moving the other one underneath the funnel. A recorder in the gage records each tip and the time it occurred. The tipping bucket gage has its disadvantages, however. It cannot be used in freezing weather because the mechanism or the funnel hole can freeze solid. Sometimes the tipper mechanism doesn't work or double tips.  11, record 6, English, - tipping%2Dbucket%20rain%20gauge

Weighing Gage. This type of gage consists of an antifreeze-filled collection bucket mounted on top of a scale. As rain, snow, hail, or any type of precipitation falls into the collecting bucket, the bucket becomes heavier. The antifreeze is there to allow the liquid content for frozen precipitation to be measured. Every few minutes, a recorder attached to the scale records the weight of the bucket contents. Since the size of the bucket, the weight of antifreeze, and the density of water are known, a precipitation amount can be measured from the weight of the bucket.  2, record 7, English, - weighing%20and%20tipping%20bucket%20gauge

The second type of rain-gauge is the autographic gauge which can be either of the tilting-siphon type or the tipping-bucket type. The recording chart on an autographic rain-gauge is mounted on a drum which is driven by clockwork and typically rotates round a vertical axis once per day. For a tilting-siphon rain-gauge, the rainwater in a collector displaces a float so that a marking pen attached to the float makes a continuous trace on the paper.  4, record 8, English, - natural%20siphon%20gauge

Deux types de courbes déduites des enregistrements d’un pluviographe(pluviogramme) permettent d’analyser les averses d’une station : La courbe des hauteurs de pluie cumulée, le hyétogramme. La courbe des hauteurs de pluie cumulées représente en ordonnée, pour chaque instant t, l'intégrale de la hauteur de pluie tombée depuis le début de l'averse. Le hyétogramme est la représentation, sous la forme d’un histogramme, de l'intensité de la pluie en fonction du temps. Il représente la dérivée en un point donné, par rapport au temps, de la courbe des précipitations cumulées. Les éléments importants d’un hyétogramme sont le pas de temps Dt et sa forme. Communément, on choisit le plus petit pas de temps possible selon la capacité des instruments de mesure. Quant à la forme du hyétogramme, elle est en général caractéristique du type de l'averse et varie donc d’un événement à un autre.  3, record 10, French, - hy%C3%A9togramme
