If your data is accumulated for a time period (a day, ...), then you

Sören,

  Thank you for clarifying. We all use terms for which we have specific
definitions while others have their own definitions that are different.
That's why I want to be sure we're both using the same definition.

The next thing to consider is, what you want to do with the data. If you
want to compute interactions with other time series, then it makes sense
to use time intervals to compute temporal overlapping and intersection.

  These data will be part of the input to Itzi models of flat land surface
hydrology. They are the only variable contributing to water depth by time
and place.

Very much appreciated,

Rich
