To put Chinese automatic measurement of solid precipitation into practical effec t, and to know the precipitation measurement differences between Chinese standar d manual gauge and international reference instrument DIFR recommended by WMO, a comparison test of precipitation measurement was implemented at Daxigou, Changc hun and Tonghe in 2006. The catch efficiency of Chinese standard manual gauge in rain and in snow is given, respectively, including the different affections of wind on rain and snow measurements. The protection results against wind of manua l gauges in various installation ways are briefly analyzed. Based on catch effic iencies and some comparison observations, precipitation measurement capabilities are compared among seven types of automatic gauges. Then some bases and suggest ions are given for operational automatic precipitation record.
