Rainfall/precipitation was recorded using standard rainfall gauges. Attempts were made to record the rainfall after each event in order to minimize losses from evaporation. During multi-precipitation events that lasted a few days, the gauges may only have been read once. Missing monthly data resulted from incomplete records due to stolen or damaged rain gauges.
Data available from the Department of Animal and Range Sciences.
