A simple device for automatic sampling of runoff for quality monitoring during rainfall events

The construction and operation of a new device for automatic sampling of runoff during rainfall events is described. It is easily made, simple to use, not vulnerable to operational disturbances, and inexpensive, thus allowing use at many sites with reasonable costs. The basic principle is to use the weight of the rain to trigger the sample collection. To test the utility of the device, runoff during rainfall events was collected at three catchments over the summer of 1994.

Abstract

The construction and operation of a new device for automatic sampling of runoff during rainfall events is described. It is easily made, simple to use, not vulnerable to operational disturbances, and inexpensive, thus allowing use at many sites with reasonable costs. The basic principle is to use the weight of the rain to trigger the sample collection. To test the utility of the device, runoff during rainfall events was collected at three catchments over the summer of 1994.
