Evaluation of Rainfall Interception by Vegetation Using a Rainfall Simulator [PDF]
Interception by vegetation is one of the main variables controlling hydrological and geo-environmental problems such as erosion, landslides and floods. Interception, along with precipitation and evapotranspiration, is required for the modeling of infiltration, percolation and runoff.

A review of rainfall interception modelling [PDF]
This paper is a review of physically-based rainfall interception modelling. Fifteen models were selected, representing distinct concepts of the interception process. Applications of these models to field data sets published before March 2008 are also analysed.

Application of Copula Functions for Rainfall Interception Modelling [PDF]
Rainfall interception is an important process of the water cycle that can have significant influence on surface runoff and groundwater storage. Since rainfall interception measurements are rare and time consuming, rainfall interception estimation can be made indirectly using different meteorological variables. Experimental data of rainfall interception

Recent global decline in rainfall interception loss due to altered rainfall regimes. [PDF]
AbstractEvaporative loss of interception (Ei) is the first process occurring during rainfall, yet its role in large-scale surface water balance has been largely underexplored. Here we show thatEican be inferred from flux tower evapotranspiration measurements using physics-informed hybrid machine learning models built under wet versus dry conditions ...

Modeling vegetation interception under natural rainfall in yerba mate production systems [PDF]
Interception loss plays an important role in rainfall partitioning, retaining significant amounts of water that would be directed to the soil. In this work, the objective was to measure interception by vegetation and evaluate the Rutter and Gash models ...

Rainfall Interception by Cool-Desert Shrubs [PDF]
Highlight: Interception patterns of big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata Nutt.) and shadscale (Atriplex confertifolia (Torr.) Wats.) were measured under two simulated rainfall intensities during three different seasons, Mean rainfall interception rate of individual plants of both species was 0.1.5 cm when averaged over all sampling dates and rainfall ...

Influence of gravel mulch on rainfall interception under simulated rainfall [PDF]
To understand the hydrological outcomes of interception by gravel mulches, rainfall simulation experiments were conducted in the loess regions of northwestern China. The rainfall interception decreased with gravel size but increased with the thickness of

Interception of Rainfall by Tarbush [PDF]
The objective of this study was to determine the interception by tarbush of artificially applied rainfall. Twelve tarbush shrubs were collected near Las Cruces in southern New Mexico to obtain a representative sample of shrub size classes.

Rainfall interception by Quercus castaneifolia, Acer velutium, and Pinus brutia plantations within the growing season in Darabkola Forest of Mazandaran Province [PDF]
Changes in rainfall interception and consequently in water balance cause essential effects on reforestation by indigenous and exotic tree species in the degraded areas of the Caspian forests.
