Steal the rain: Interception loses and rainfall partitioning by a broad‐leaf and a fine‐leaf woody encroaching species in a southern African semi‐arid savanna [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Woody plant encroachment (WPE) has been found to alter ecosystem functioning and services in savannas. In rain‐limited savannas, increasing woody cover can reduce streamflow and groundwater by altering evapotranspiration rates and rainfall partitioning ...

Climate Change May Alter Rainfall-Partitioning in Ways Unlikely To Be Detected in the Coming Decades
Water Resources ResearchDroughts around the world have resulted in less annual streamflow relative to annual rainfall. The decrease in streamflow cannot be explained by changes in land‐use, precipitation or temperature alone.

Comparison of revised Gash models for estimating rainfall interception in an oriental beech stand, west of Hyrcanian region [PDF]
مجله جنگل ایران, 2022 The most common models for estimating rainfall interception are physical-based models, of which Gash models are the most widely used. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the efficiency of revised Gash models in estimating the rainfall interception of ...

Inter- and intra-event rainfall partitioning dynamics of two typical xerophytic shrubs in the Loess Plateau of China [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Rainfall is known as the main water replenishment in dryland ecosystems, and rainfall partitioning by vegetation reshapes the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of rainwater entry into the soil.

Canopy Interception for a Tallgrass Prairie under Juniper Encroachment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Rainfall partitioning and redistribution by canopies are important ecohydrological processes underlying ecosystem dynamics. We quantified and contrasted spatial and temporal variations of rainfall redistribution for a juniper (Juniperus virginiana ...

Modeling vegetation interception under natural rainfall in yerba mate production systems [PDF]
RBRH, 2023 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 ...

Partitioning snowmelt and rainfall in the critical zone: effects of climate type and soil properties [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Streamflow generation and deep groundwater recharge may be vulnerable to loss of snow, making it important to quantify how snowmelt is partitioned between soil storage, deep drainage, evapotranspiration, and runoff.
