Rainfall interception in mountainous forest - a case study
Original language description
Rainfall partitioning by vegetation significantly affects many components of water balance from local to the catchment scale. It also alters water fluxes in soil?plant?atmosphere continuum and further enhances the complexity of processes studied. The experimental headwater catchment Liz is located in the Bohemian Forest in the southern part of the Czech Republic (0.99 sq. km, altitude 941 m.a.s.l., average temperature 6.3 C, annual precipitation 861 mm). The mountainous forest ecosystem at Liz has beensubject of long-term monitoring. The relevant meteorological and hydrological variables were measured at several sites in the catchment. Three sites were selected for rainfall measurement; two sites in a mature forest (spruce and beech) and one in an open area. Throughfall was measured by weighing and tipping bucket rain gauges. Arrays of rain gauges were established in 2009 to capture spatial variation of throughfall on the spruce and beech forest sites. Stem flow was registered for sel
