Evaluation of Rainfall Interception by Vegetation Using a Rainfall Simulator [PDF]
Sustainability, 2021 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.

Rainfall estimation using moving cars as rain gauges – laboratory experiments [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013 The spatial assessment of short time-step precipitation is a challenging task. Low density of observation networks, as well as the bias in radar rainfall estimation motivated the new idea of exploiting cars as moving rain gauges with windshield wipers or
