The Role of Leaf Wettability and Morphology on Leaf Surface Water Storage: A Cross‐Biome Synthesis
ABSTRACT The presence of water on leaves impacts plant function and ecosystem fluxes by supplementing moisture, reducing evapotranspirational demand and encouraging pathogen spread. Maximum phytoelement water storage capacity (MWSC)—the maximum amount of water that can be held on the surface of the leaf‐ is an important but poorly constrained parameter

Stemflow in a Multi-storied Aspen Community
This paper presents mathematical equations describing the relationships between the amount of stemflow per canopy layer per storm and the amount of gross rain per storm for four different canopy layers in a multi-storied forest community. The curves representing the relationships were curvilinear; for three of the canopy layers stemflow per storm ...

Restoration of Thicketized Post Oak Savanna Woodlands Increases Deep Drainage
ABSTRACT Woody plant encroachment and subsequent thicketization is a global phenomenon that has been demonstrated to reduce groundwater recharge, yet it is unknown whether reducing woody plant cover will restore groundwater recharge rates to pre‐encroachment levels.

Water-borne hyphomycetes in tree canopies of Kaiga (Western Ghats), India
The canopy samples such as trapped leaf litter, trapped sediment (during summer), stemflow and throughfall (during monsoon) from five common riparian tree species (Artocarpus heterophyllus, Cassia fistula, Ficus recemosa, Syzygium caryophyllatum and ...

Seasonal and annual throughfall and stemflow in Andean temperate rainforests
AbstractThe partitioning of gross rainfall into throughfall, stemflow, and interception loss and their relationships with forest structure was studied for a period of four years (October 2002–September 2006) and two years (October 2005–September 2007) in seven experimental catchments of temperate rainforest ecosystems located in the Andes of south ...

To study spray drift contributions to non-targeted habitats, pesticide concentrations in stemflow (water flowing down the trunk of a tree during a rain event), throughfall (water from tree canopy only), and surface water in an agriculturally impacted ...

Determination of interception in conifers in a plantation forest located in semiarid environment
Throughfall, stemflow and water yield through interception are the decisive factors on the amount of rainfall reaching the soil. These elements are important components in the hydrological cycle.

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 ...

The effects of stemflow on redistributing precipitation and infiltration around shrubs
The experiments of stemflow of two semiarid shrubs (Caragana korshinskii and Hippophae rhamnoides) and its effect on soil water enhancement were conducted from 1st May to 30th September of 2009-2013 in the Chinese Loess Plateau.
