Rainfall Interception Loss by Forest Canopies
2011When rain falls onto a forest a proportion is intercepted by the canopy and evaporates back into the atmosphere, playing no further part in the terrestrial portion of the hydrologic cycle. This canopy interception loss, I c, can be appreciable (Table 20.1).

Rainfall interception by eight small trees
Journal of Hydrology, 1979Abstract Interception studies were undertaken on individual plants of selected tree species under a rainfall simulator. The results give insight to the process of interception, provide information on the level of the interception storage of the test species and illustrate the importance of leaf area. Two interception models were tested.

A rainout shelter design for intercepting different amounts of rainfall
Oecologia, 2002Field manipulative experiments represent a straightforward way to explore temporal relationships between annual precipitation and productivity. Water exclusion usually involves the use of rainout shelters, which are in general formed by a complete roof that intercepts 100% of the rainfall and require complicated mechanisms to move the shelter into ...

Interception of rainfall by mature lodgepole‐pine
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1941With increasing demands on available water‐supplies for agricultural, industrial, and domestic use, the central Rocky Mountains have become one of the most important water‐yielding areas in the western United States. Since the water‐producing area of these mountain is largely occupied by national forests, a serious responsibility is borne by the Forest

Rainfall Interception by Plants: An Experimental Note
Ecology, 1923In the investigation of the atmospheric phenomena which owe their origin to the presence of some form of water in the atmosphere only a little has been accomplished by experimental means in the matter of the determination of their mechanical interception by objects in their path.

An analytical model of rainfall interception by forests
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1979AbstractThe description of the evaporation of rainfall intercepted by forests in terms of a regression of evaporation loss on incident rainfall is discussed and some of the assumptions implicit in that method are re‐examined. The two major factors which control the evaporation of intercepted rainfall are identified.
