Abstract:
The possibilities of using surface network of the automatic weather stations as the raingage measurement equipment over the area of the radar observations are considered. The experimental data received
since June till August 2011 are analyzed. More detailed comparative analysis of the raingage and the radar measurements proceeded on example of the convective rain clouds over the central part of the North
Caucasus on 25.08.2011.
Keywords:automatic weather station, rain measurements radar methods, errors of measurements,
mean fractional error of measurements, maximum fractional error of measurements.
