Antique Framed Print : Rainfall gauge
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Rainfall gauge
Rainfall measurement device (rain gauge). This device is one of several that are placed at specific locations to collect rain. The rain falls through a defined aperture and into an inner can. The contents are then measured, normally once a day, by pouring into a measuring jar. Universally used by professional and amateur meteorologists, these models are also ideal for educational, industrial and other applications. Manufactured by Munro
