Materials
Cut the top off of the bottle.
STEP 1
- Use a pair of scissors to carefully cut the top of the bottle off.
- Cut just beneath where the bottle begins to narrow.
- A plastic soda bottle works best.
Place small stones in the bottom.
STEP 2
- We place the stones at the bottom of the bottle to prevent it from being blown away by the wind
Turn the top of the bottle into a funnel
STEP 3
- Remove the cap from the top of the bottle and turn it upside down.
- The top should be pointing downward.
- Secure the funnel with adhesive tape.
Create your measuring line
STEP 4
- Cut a long piece of paper and place it on the side of the gauge so that it creates a straight vertical line from the bottom of the bottle to the top.
Mark centimeter intervals
STEP 5
- Take a ruler and place it against the tape so that the 0 lines up with the end of the stones.
Place the gauge at an optimal location
STEP 6
- Set your gauge on a level surface.
- You need to put water until de 0 line.
- Make sure it isn’t branches over the bottle.
Pay attention to the weather
STEP 7
- Check the forecast for rain.
- Check your gauge exactly 24 hours later to see how high the water has risen.
Repeat your measurements.
STEP 8
- You can continue measuring for 7 - 14 days
Analyze your results
STEP 9
- You can also compare the rainfall from month to month, week to week, or day to day.
Thanks!
