      • dataset_eml_methoddescription: Precipitation volume and pH are recorded on an event basis.

    • Rain and snow collection
      • dataset_eml_methoddescription: Rainfall is intercepted by a funnel and passes through a length of tygon tubing until it reaches and is collected in a one gallon jug. Snow is collected and melted indoors to completely melt before pH is measured.
