Data Notification

Throughfall precipitation notice

February 21, 2018

Due to widespread instrument malfunction and unreliable data quality, we are halting publication of throughfall precipitation until further notice. The tipping mechanism frequently falls off its rocker, causing precipitation events to go unrecorded.

A more robust design of the tipping mechanism is currently in production and all sensors will be retrofitted. Data and associated quality flags prior to the retrofit should be considered unreliable and of limited use.
