Twin-gauge station

Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-009855

A meteorological observation site equipped with two rain gauges, typically a standard gauge and a recording gauge. This setup allows for both manual measurement of precipitation accumulation and continuous, automated recording of rainfall intensity over time. The standard gauge provides a daily total, while the recording gauge captures the temporal distribution of precipitation events.
