The present study addresses the aerodynamic response of the recently developed "Hotplate" precipitation gauge when exposed to the wind. The Hotplate gauge employs two heated plates to provide a reliable method of precipitation measurement. The measuring principle is based on an algorithm to associate the latent heat needed to evaporate the...

This study reports the results of laboratory tests performed to assess the performance of two drop counting rain gauges of the catching type, and to propose suitable correction to make them compliant with the specifications of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) at one-minute time resolution for Rainfall Intensity (RI) measurements. The...
