Recording type rain gauge records the rainfall in terms of?
Answer: B
A recording rain gauge records rainfall in terms of depth and time.
Recording (self-recording) gauges, such as the tipping bucket, weighing bucket and natural siphon types, draw a continuous record of accumulated rainfall depth against time on a chart or a data logger. This mass curve shows when the rain fell and how fast, so rainfall intensity can be worked out from its slope.
Depth alone is what a non-recording gauge gives. Rainfall is not reported as a volume or as a specific weight.
