KEYWORDS
ABSTRACT
This paper reviews collectors for atmospheric precipitation (rain, fog, and run-off water). Collection
systems of a different degree of automation (from simple designs to highly automated costly collectors) are
presented. In many papers on collecting atmospheric precipitation neither sampling procedures nor locations
of sampling sites are given, although this information is necessary for producing correct and comparable
results of physical and chemical analyses.
