Have started looking at the comparison between the various rain gauges. In this analysis, I removed [data when the wetness sensor indicated dry conditions?] There have been several major rain events, but not all sensors were working:
Date | understory | ott.pond | tb.pond | wxt.pond | wetness.pond |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
6/1 jun | ok | ok | wire stretched | misconfigured | ok |
6/5-6/6 jun | plugged | ok | wire streched | misconfigured | ok |
6/7 jun | plugged | ok | wire stretched | ok | ok |
6/17-6/18 jun | plugged | ok | ok | ok | died |
6/28 jun | branch hit | ok | ok | ok | ok |
6/29 jun | ok | ok | ok | ok | ok |
As far as I know, there were no sensor issues for the remainder of the experiment.
Daily storm totals (to nearest mm):

SUMMARY:
- Ott and siphoning tipping bucket agree very well (when totaled multiple days, agree to within 4%).
