HYREX project: Data from Purpose-built Dense Raingauge Network

Data from the purpose-built dense raingauge network was established in Somerset as part of the HYREX project. HYREX (Hydrological Radar Experiment) was a NERC (Natural Environment Research Council) special topic running from May 1993 to April 1997. Field experiments with an emphasis on radar, plus related interpretation and modelling, were carried out to investigate the short term forecasting and hydrological implications of precipitation.
