Question 1
What is the formula to calculate the optimum number of rain gauges?
- N = C / E
- N = C² / E²
- N = C + E
💡 Hint: Focus on the structure of the formula.
Question 2
True or false: A higher coefficient of variation means fewer rain gauges are needed.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Think about how variability affects accuracy.
