Bellamy method
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-003878
A technique for estimating precipitation over a drainage basin using a network of rain gauges. It involves assigning a weighting factor to each gauge based on its location relative to the basin's area. This method provides a single average precipitation value for the entire basin, expressed in units of depth such as millimeters or inches.
