Small understory trees increase growth following sustained drought in the Amazon. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Droughts pose a major threat to the Amazon rainforest, yet the mechanisms enabling trees to maintain growth under prolonged drought remain poorly understood, particularly in the understory layer. We leveraged a 22‐yr Throughfall Exclusion (TFE) in a 1‐ha plot in eastern Amazonia, paired with a Control plot, to test whether small understory ...

Changes in emission regime for nitrogen and sulfur in Germany and its impact on a spruce forest measured over a period of 35 years. [PDF]
J Environ QualAbstract In Germany during several decades, emissions and thus the chemical climate affecting forests have changed significantly. The effects of these changes on the element balance of forests can be documented only by long‐term observations, as has been done at the Höglwald site (Southern Bavaria) since 1985.

Drying suppresses fine root production to 1 m depths and alters root traits in four distinct tropical forests. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Throughfall partitioning by trees [PDF]
Hydrological Processes, 2019 AbstractAlthough we know that rainfall interception (the rain caught, stored, and evaporated from aboveground vegetative surfaces and ground litter) is affected by rain and throughfall drop size, what was unknown until now is the relative proportion of each throughfall type (free throughfall, splash throughfall, canopy drip) beneath coniferous and ...

Inexpensive throughfall exclusion experiment for single large trees [PDF]
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2020 PremiseDrought‐induced tree mortality is an emergent threat to forests worldwide, particularly to large trees. Drought‐manipulation experiments involving throughfall exclusion (TFE) tend to focus on large plots that can be expensive to establish and maintain and may be unsuitable for large trees or indigenous forests.

Measuring turfgrass canopy interception and throughfall using co-located pluviometers. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2022 Turfgrass management relies on frequent watering events from natural precipitation or irrigation. However, most irrigation scheduling strategies in turfgrass ignore the magnitude of canopy interception. Interception is the process by which precipitation or irrigation water is intercepted by and evaporated from plant canopies or plant residue.

Sampling procedures for throughfall monitoring: A simulation study [PDF]
Water Resources Research, 2010 What is the most appropriate sampling scheme to estimate event‐based average throughfall? A satisfactory answer to this seemingly simple question has yet to be found, a failure which we attribute to previous efforts' dependence on empirical studies. Here we try to answer this question by simulating stochastic throughfall fields based on parameters for ...

THROUGHFALL PADA JABON MERAH (ANTHOCEPHALUS MACROPHYLLUS)
Jurnal Penelitian Kehutanan BONITA, 2020 This study aims to measure the throughfall of Anthocepalus macrophyllu. The research was conducted in the experimental garden of SMK Neg 4 Luwu, Baramamase Village, Walenrang District, Luwu Regency. The materials used were 6 samples of Anthocephalus macrophyllus trees with a device consisting of a manual rainfall gauge, a hose, a collection bucket, a ...

International Association of Scientific Hydrology. Bulletin, 1962 Abstract For a period, 1958–60, a record was kept of 24 wedge-shaped gages randomly placed under a secondary hardwood forest canopy to determine the amount and variation in throughfall and drip from the rain. An average of the 24 gages under the canopy for each rain was then compared with the catch in a standard 8-inch rain gage maintained in the open.

Stemflow and throughfall in agricultural crops: a synthesis [PDF]
Ambiente e Agua - An Interdisciplinary Journal of Applied Science, 2021 The interception of rainwater in annual and perennial agriculture has been the object of several studies in the last decades. However, scant attention has been paid to where this research has taken place and which principal crops have been studied. The objective of this research is to perform a bibliometric analysis of one hundred articles from the ...
