Forest stand structure plays an important role in rainfall interception and is a focal point in forest hydrology. Previous studies mainly looked at the effect of non-spatial attributes of stands while a few studies addressed the influence of spatial ...

Tropical Continents Rainier Than Expected From Geometrical Constraints
Abundant rainfall over tropical land masses sustains rich ecosystems, a crucial source of biodiversity and sink of carbon. Here, we use two characteristics of the observed tropical precipitation distribution, its distinctive zonal arrangement and its ...

Tree water use and rainfall partitioning in a mature poplar-pasture system [PDF]
Traditionally, poplars (Populus) have been planted to control erosion on New Zealand's hill-slopes, because of their capacity to dry out and bind together the soil, by reducing effective rainfall and increasing evapotranspiration and soil strength. However, the effect of widely spaced poplars on the partitioning of soil water and rainfall has not been ...

STEMFLOW, THROUGHFALL AND RAINWATER INTERCEPTION OF EIGHT INDONESIAN TREE SPECIES
Tree architecture affects how rainwater is partitioned into canopy interception, throughfall and stemflow. The canopy shape and bark/leaf surface morphology affects the plants’ ability to intercept and redistribute the rainwater.

Quantifying throughfall, stemflow, and rainfall interception in a Fagus orientalis forest and a Picea abies plantation in Siahkal, Gilan [PDF]
Rainfall partitioning into throughfall, stemflow, and interception is an important component of the water cycle in tree’s ecosystems in forest ecohydrological research.

Identifying Individual Rain Events with a Dense Disdrometer Network
The use of point detectors to measure properties of rainfall is ubiquitous in the hydrological sciences. An early step in most rainfall analysis includes the partitioning of the data record into “rain events.” This work utilizes data from a dense network

Different canopy characteristics of industrial eucalyptus may lead to differences in water evaporation and availability to plants. This study aims to understand rainfall partitioning in a young clonal plantation (age of 2–4.5 years) of three eucalyptus ...

Partitioning spatial and temporal rainfall variability in urban drainage modelling [PDF]
Abstract. The performance of urban drainage systems is typically examined using hydrological and hydrodynamic models where rainfall is uniformly distributed and derived from a single rain-gauge or spatially distributed and obtained from a weather radar system.

Runoff- and erosion-driven transport of cattle slurry: linking molecular tracers to hydrological processes [PDF]
The addition of cattle slurry to agricultural land is a widespread practise, but if not correctly managed it can pose a contamination risk to aquatic ecosystems.
