Caribou-Poker Creeks Research Watershed: Hourly Precipitation data, 1988 to Present

Precipitation is measured at many sites withinCPCRW using TE525 tipping buckets. These sensors are able to detect .254mm of precipitation and record hourly totals of rainfall or throughfall. It should be noted the tipping buckets within forested sites are subject to clogging by forest debris whcih c...

Description
Summary:Precipitation is measured at many sites withinCPCRW using TE525 tipping buckets. These sensors are able to detect .254mm of precipitation and record hourly totals of rainfall or throughfall. It should be noted the tipping buckets within forested sites are subject to clogging by forest debris whcih can result in under reporting of rain events as well as over reporting upon release of the collected precipitation.
