A mathematical model is developed to estimate rain-induced errors in cup anemometer readings. Based upon a two-cup hemispheric model, the indicated wind speed is calculated for a given true wind speed, fall velocities of the drops, and a general drop-size distribution. The results of these computat

## Abstract A monolayer on a water surface is affected by the action of wind, and retracts until the wind drag is counter‐balanced by the opposing surface pressure gradient. This effect has been used to determine the shearing stress on water at low wind speeds. Estimates of the drag coefficient hav
