✦ Synopsis

The methods of correcting for systematic errors in precipitation measurements using the Czechoslovak gauge METRA 886 are presented. This gauge has an orifice area of 500 cm2 and is elevated 1 m above the ground. The wetting correction amounts to 0.1-0.2 mm per measurement. The evaporation correction ranges from 3 per cent in frost-free periods to 10 per cent in frost periods. The wind-induced correction amounts to 5 per cent for rain and 45 per cent for snow. The total sum of corrections on average 10-15 per cent per year in lower localities.

An axial heat flow, steady state method for thermal conductivity measurements above 80 K on poor conductors is described. A split shield (one part held at the sink temperature and the other kept at the hot-end temperature) is shown to be successful for the correction of radiation errors. Measurement
