A comparison of water use strategies between pure and mixed forests on the Chinese Loess Plateau
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mixed forests have gained increasing attention for afforestation effort on the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP), while the understanding of how tree water use strategies change across pure and mixed forests is still challenge.

Tree canopies efficiently capture aerosols, with coastal and island environments particularly prone to much higher chloride deposition beneath vegetation compared to open sites. On Norfolk Island, enhancement ranged from 8% to 3742%, driven by canopy structure, exposure, rainfall, and wind.

Intersepsi Curah Hujan Pada Tegakan Pohon Pinus (Casuarina cunninghamia)
ABSTRAK. Proses tertahannya curah hujan di atas tajuk vegetasi dikenal dengan istilah intersepsi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan pengukuran intersepsi, air lolos (throughfall), dan aliran batang (stemflow) pada tegakan pohon pinus (Casuarina ...

Rainfall redistribution in subtropical Chinese forests changes over 22 years [PDF]
Rainfall redistribution through the vegetation canopy plays a key role in the hydrological cycle. Although there have been studies on the heterogeneous patterns of rainfall redistribution in some ecosystems, the understanding of this process in different

Abstract Assessing rainfall interception (IR) is a critical yet uncertain aspect in hydrological cycle, particularly the quantification of relative contributions from leaves and woody components (e.g., branches, stems, and trunks) to IR. Nevertheless, the role of woody components in IR estimation remains largely unexplored and thereby has been ...

Ubiquity and Causes of Soil Water Preferential Flow Across 17 Ecoregions
Abstract Preferential flow (PF) in soil causes the rapid transport of water, nutrients, and contaminants into the subsurface, influencing groundwater recharge and streamflow. Data scarcity has hindered the quantification of PF occurrence and the identification of its drivers across diverse ecoregions.

Modelling runoff at the plot scale taking into account rainfall partitioning by vegetation: application to stemflow of banana (Musa spp.) plant [PDF]
Rainfall partitioning by vegetation modifies the intensity of rainwater reaching the ground, which affects runoff generation. Incident rainfall is intercepted by the plant canopy and then redistributed into throughfall and stemflow.

Assessment of Throughfall Drivers Under Pine Canopies Across Different Urban Climates
Throughfall plays a significant role in hydrological processes, as it defines the net volume of rainfall available for runoff generation under a vegetative canopy. Our research examines the differences in variables influencing canopy throughfall for the same tree species across different climate types using regression tree and boosted regression tree ...
