Canopy Storage Implications on Interception Loss Modeling
American Journal of Plant Sciences, 2014 A rainfall interception methodology was implemented in a deciduous Ficus benjamina (L.) tree to evaluate the interception loss, as well as the dynamics on canopy storage capacity (S) and free through fall (ρ). Measurements of gross precipitation (Pg), through fall and meteorological data were recorded every 5 minutes.

A tree-based approach for modelling interception loss from evergreen oak Mediterranean savannas [PDF]
, 2010 Evaporation of rainfall intercepted by tree canopies is usually an important part of the overall water balance of forested catchments and there have been many studies dedicated to measuring and modelling rainfall interception loss.
