What instrument is used to find precipitation?
This instrument is called pluviometer (a rain gauge). See the link below.
What instrument detects precipitation?
Precipitation is generally detected by different types of radar, which send out a beam of radio waves just above the earth's surface and wait for them to scatter off of rain drops and snow flakes.
The condition of the type of water falling to Earth from the clouds is called?
precipitation
What is Neptunes precipitation?
It has no precipitation.
Precipitation is the same as what?
precipitation is another name for what? rain!!!!!!! === ===
What instrument tracks location on precipitation?
Rain Guage
What instrument is used to find precipitation?

What instrument measures percipitaion?
Rain gauze measures precipitation at the given place and time.
What instrument would you use to measure precipitation you would use a rain vale?
rain vale
What instrument detects precipitation?
Precipitation is generally detected by different types of radar, which send out a beam of radio waves just above the earth's surface and wait for them to scatter off of rain drops and snow flakes.
What weather instrument measures in inches?
A rain gauge measures in inches because it collects and measures the amount of precipitation that has fallen in an area.
What instrument uses radio waves to detect distant objects or precipitation and measure its distance?
RadarRadar
What measures the precipitation that has fallen in the area?
A rain gauge (AKA udometer, pluviometer, ombrometer, and hyetometer) is the instrument used by meteorologists and hydrologists to gather and measure the amount of liquid precipitation over an area in a specific period of time.
What are the disadvantages of an anemometer which is a meteorological instrument?
An anemometer is used to measure the speed of the wind. The main disadvantage is the distortion of wind speed in relation to precipitation.
What instrument measures intensity of precipitation?
You either use a rain gauge and measure at different time intervals, or use radar.
What instrument is used to measure precipitation type?
The meter used to measure preciptation is called a rain gauge. Rain gauges only measure rainfall not preciptation because precipitation includes mostly anything falling from the sky. I do not believe there is one device to measure all types of precipitation. Although I believe there is such a thing as a hail pad to measure hail I am not certain.
What are the differences between post precipitation and co - precipitation?
Post-precipitation involves separate precipitation steps after the initial precipitation reaction, while co-precipitation involves simultaneous precipitation of multiple compounds. Post-precipitation is used to remove impurities after the main precipitation reaction, while co-precipitation can involve trapping impurities within the precipitate.
