Measurement of precipitation is based on which of the following assumptions :-
1
precipitation is measured as the vertical depth of water that accumulates on a level surface.
2
precipitation is measured as the horizontal area on which water accumulates.
3
both vertical and horizontal depths are taken to measure precipitation.
4
distribution of rainfall is necessary to be measured.
