Rainfall estimation using moving cars as rain gauges – laboratory experiments [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013 The spatial assessment of short time-step precipitation is a challenging task. Low density of observation networks, as well as the bias in radar rainfall estimation motivated the new idea of exploiting cars as moving rain gauges with windshield wipers or

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A RAINFALL SIMULATOR [PDF]
Misr Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2009 Rainfall simulators are helpful tools used to study hydrologic and erosion processes. Rainfall simulations researches are very rare in the Middle East region. In this research, an artificial rainfall simulator system has been developed to apply a controlled amount and rate of rainfall on a test plot located in an arid basin in western Saudi Arabia ...

Construction and calibration of a rainfall simulator [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural Engineering Research, 1989 A portable rainfall simulator featuring a rotating disc and nozzle, has been developed for use in field studies of erosion, infiltration, and runoff processes. Variable intensities of simulated rainfall ranging from 15 to 150mm h−1 are produced by choice of appropriate nozzles and slot apertures in the rotating disc.

Evaluation of Erodibility of Formations in the Khangah-Sorkh Watershed (Urmia) Using a Rain Simulator [PDF]
پژوهشهای آبخیزداری, 2020 Erosion is one of the major causes of waste of water and soil. Perhaps the main reason for failure to control erosion is the weakness of knowledge and recognition of this phenomenon. Due to the great value of soil and the subsequent problems arising from
