Abstract

Typical results of precipitation parameter measurements with the optical precipitation gauge at the IMCES SB RAS meteorological site from June to October 2016 are described. The particle size distributions are presented for precipitations of different types. The measured precipitation intensity and daily total values are compared with the data obtained with standard precipitation gauges.
