- Abstract:
-
Rainfall interception by vegetation is the first loss and the first redistribution of rainfall. It reduces the rainfall effectively and so is one of the important processes of water cycling. Current knowledge concerning the influencing factors to interception, models for prediction the interception which had been sorted as empirical models, stochastic models and physical models, and methods for estimating vegetation coverage and leaf area index were reviewed in this paper. Further research for vegetation interception is also discussed in this paper.
