Substituting (11.15) and (11.16) into (11.1 1) we get:<br />

With the aid of a computer, the term<br />

was determined for a square area S (see Kagan, 1972).<br />

In this way<br />

is obtained.<br />

Next, we consider the situation that n rain gauges are evenly distributed over S. The<br />

precipitation depths recorded at these points are denoted by h, , h2, ..., h,.<br />

Each rain gauge covers a subarea S/n.<br />

The areal precipitation depths of this subarea is now estimated with the precipitation<br />

depth recorded at the station belonging to it.<br />

That means that:<br />

The standard error of estimation for the ith subarea is given by (11.18):<br />

Assuming that the errors of estimate for the various subareas are independent, we can<br />

write for the standard error of the estimate given by (11.19):
