Les pluviographes permettent la mesure et l'enregistrement chronologique des quantités de pluie. On distingue :[...] Les appareils mesurant l'intensité des précipitations, dont le type est le pluviographe de JARDI. L'eau recueillie s’écoule à travers une ouverture annulaire qui se crée entre un tube et un pointeau; ce dernier se soulève sous l'effet de la pression de l'eau d’une hauteur qui est en relation avec le débit du pluviomètre, donc l'intensité de la pluie. 1, record 1, French, - pluviographe%20de%20Jardi
