This procedure describes the operation and maintenance of the Meteorological
Instruments of Canada (MIC) precipitation collector. The MIC precipitation collector has been configured for a variety of applications including Mercury deposition sampling. The collector is simple and versatile for wet and dry deposition collection. The collector is triggered by wet deposition via the wetness sensor, which opens the cover to the wet deposition collector. If it is configured with a dry deposition collector, the cover then covers the dry deposition collector during rain events.
