A forest-structure-based analysis of rain flow into soil in a dense deciduous Betula ermanii forest with understory dwarf bamboo

The relationship between rain flow into the soil and forest structure was investigated in a dense deciduous Betula ermanii forest in northern Japan. The forest floor was covered with dwarf bamboo Sasa kurilensis. Observation was conducted from mid-July to late October in 1998. Leaf fall of Betula started in early September and ended in late October. Stemflow was proportional to rainfall and tree size [diameter at breast height (DBH)], and for the same rainfall, stemflow increased with leaf fall. On the contrary, throughfall decreased with leaf fall. Throughfall was intercepted also by Sasa in proportion to its leaf area. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that stemflow and throughfall of Betula and Sasa were predictable as functions of rainfall and forest structural characteristics, such as DBH, tree density, and stand leaf mass. The rain interception by plants tended to decrease from summer to autumn, but the difference in the interception was about 2% between July (fully expanded leaves) and late October (lack of leaves). About 96 and 87% of rainfall reached the above- and below-Sasa layers, respectively. Thus, this study showed that understory Sasa is a major component of rain interception within the stand and that rain flow into the soil can be estimated by using rainfall and the forest structural parameters, such as DBH, tree density and stand leaf mass.     

Rainfall partitioning and related hydrochemical fluxes in a diverse and in a mono specific (Phenakospermum guyannense) secondary vegetation stand in eastern Amazonia

Rainfall partitioning into throughfall and stemflow was studied in a diverse and in a mono specific stand of secondary vegetation in Eastern Amazonia. The nutrient concentrations in the water were analysed in order to quantify the related hydrochemical fluxes. Secondary vegetation forms the fallow in the local shifting cultivation system and is usually dominated by shrubs and trees. Phenakospermum guyannense (Strelitziaceae), a banana-like herb, is one of the predominant non-woody species. The study was conducted during an 18-month period in a 2.5-year-old relatively species-rich stand and a 10-year-old stand dominated by P. guyannense. In a year with 1956 mm of rainfall 65% (1281 mm) of this quantity reached the soil as throughfall in the diverse stand and 38% (743 mm) in the mono specific stand. Stemflow was estimated to be 23% and 41% respectively. P. guyannense and Banara guianensis (Flacourtiaceae), a tree species, were causing these high funnelling effects. In the young diverse stand B. guianensis had a stemflow of more than 200 l year⁻¹ and P. guyannense had a median flux of 77 l year⁻¹ per pseudostem. In the older stand the taller plants of P.␣guyannense collected 644 l year⁻¹ per pseudostem on the median. The reason for these high values could be the banana-like growth form of P. guyannense and the crown morphology of B. guianensis, which has inclined branches. The low proportion of throughfall and the high stemflow values differ from all previous studies in Amazonian primary forests. The proximity to the Atlantic Ocean strongly influenced the nutrient fluxes via rainfall at our study site. This becomes obvious from the high Na and Cl fluxes with rainfall (19.7 kg Na ha⁻¹ year⁻¹, 37.2 kg Cl ha⁻¹ year⁻¹) which were approximately equal to the Na and Cl fluxes with the sum of throughfall and stemflow for both stands. K fluxes in throughfall and stemflow in both stands were higher than in rainfall by a factor of 8. The high K enrichment during the crown passage is assumed to be caused by a␣high K concentration in the leaf tissue resulting in enhanced leaching from the leaves. In months with low␣rainfall the concentrations of Ca, Mg, S and Cl in throughfall of the diverse stand were significantly higher than in months with high rainfall. This was mainly due to vegetation burns in the dry period, which resulted in ash deposition on the canopy and subsequent wash-off and solution of ash particles.

祁连山青海云杉林冠生态水文效应及其影响因素

以位于祁连山中段大野口关滩森林站的青海云杉林为研究对象,利用2008年观测期间(6月12日至10月8日)34场降雨的大气降雨量、穿透雨量和树干茎流量观测资料,对青海云杉林的降雨再分配特征及其影响因素进行综合分析。结果表明:青海云杉林的总穿透雨量、截留量和干流量分别为212.6、64.5 mm和3.4 mm,分别占大气降雨量的75.8%、23.0%和1.2%;穿透雨在林内具有较大的空间变异性,其变异程度随降雨量的增大而减小,叶面积指数和冠层郁闭度在一定程度上也影响穿透雨的空间分布,且降雨量越小其影响效果越明显;青海云杉林的总干流量为3.4 mm,平均干流率为0.58%,雨前林冠的湿润程度对树干流的产生有很大影响,导致当降雨量为5.6 mm时就开始产生树干茎流;青海云杉林冠截留率的大小主要取决于降雨量,且随着降雨量的增大先减小并逐渐趋于稳定,林冠截留量总体上随冠层郁闭度和叶面积指数的增大而增大,但当观测点位于树冠边缘或多个树冠重叠处时出现负截留现象。所以,就特定林分而言,冠层结构特征对于其林冠生态水文效应起着重要的作用。     

Water inputs across a tropical montane landscape in Veracruz,Mexico: synergistic effects of land cover,rain and fog seasonality,and interannual precipitation variability

Land‐cover change can alter the spatiotemporal distribution of water inputs to mountain ecosystems, an important control on land‐surface and land‐atmosphere hydrologic fluxes. In eastern Mexico, we examined the influence of three widespread land‐cover types, montane cloud forest, coffee agroforestry, and cleared areas, on total and net water inputs to soil. Stand structural characteristics, as well as rain, fog, stemflow, and throughfall (water that falls through the canopy) water fluxes were measured across 11 sites during wet and dry seasons from 2005 to 2008. Land‐cover type had a significant effect on annual and seasonal net throughfall (NTF <0=canopy water retention plus canopy evaporation; NTF >0=fog water deposition). Forest canopies retained and/or lost to evaporation (i.e. NTF<0) five‐ to 11‐fold more water than coffee agroforests. Moreover, stemflow was fourfold higher under coffee shade than forest trees. Precipitation seasonality and phenological patterns determined the magnitude of these land‐cover differences, as well as their implications for the hydrologic cycle. Significant negative relationships were found between NTF and tree leaf area index (R²=0.38, P<0.002), NTF and stand basal area (R²=0.664, P<0.002), and stemflow and epiphyte loading (R²=0.414, P<0.001). These findings indicate that leaf and epiphyte surface area reductions associated with forest conversion decrease canopy water retention/evaporation, thereby increasing throughfall and stemflow inputs to soil. Interannual precipitation variability also altered patterns of water redistribution across this landscape. Storms and hurricanes resulted in little difference in forest‐coffee wet season NTF, while El Niño Southern Oscillation was associated with a twofold increase in dry season rain and fog throughfall water deposition. In montane headwater regions, changes in water delivery to canopies and soils may affect infiltration, runoff, and evapotranspiration, with implications for provisioning (e.g. water supply) and regulating (e.g. flood mitigation) ecosystem services.     

植被覆盖度和综合治理对纸坊沟流域土壤氮素流失的影响

同小流域土壤侵蚀一样,小流域土壤氮素随洪流流失也受到植被覆盖度的影响,通常经过调整小流域内土地利用结构以达到控制水土流失.该研究以8.27 km2纸坊沟流域和1:400比例流域模型为研究对象,研究植被覆盖度和综合治理对纸坊沟流域土壤氮素流失的影响.结果表明:在模拟降雨下,当流域植被覆盖度分别为60%、40%、20%和0时,流域模型铵态氮流失量分别为87.08、44.31、25.16和13.71 kg/km2,硝态氮为85.50、74.05、63.95和56.23 kg/km2,全氮为0.81、1.18、1.98和7.51 t/km2;在自然降雨下,1998年与1992年相比,全流域年土壤侵蚀量为1 086 t/km2和1 119 t/km2,氮素流失量为8 758.5和7 562.2 kg,减少了15.8%,其中农地减少了52.0%.流域对降水中的矿质氮具有过滤作用,硝态氮的过滤作用明显高于铵态氮.洪流泥沙中＜20 μm微团聚体富集造成了泥沙有机质和全氮的富集.植被覆盖虽能有效地减少流域土壤侵蚀和全氮的流失,却能增加土壤矿质氮的流失.坡地退耕还林草可显著减少流域土壤氮素流失.     

麻竹山地笋用林水文过程及养分动态

在福建省南靖国有林场的小山城工区设置试验地,进行了麻竹林生态系统水文特征和养分动态研究.实验表明在一定降雨量级范围内,林冠截留量随着降水量的增加而增加,且较小雨量级时增加较快,较大雨量级时增加较慢,并趋于一定值;林冠截留量与一次性降雨量的关系可以用Richards函数较好地拟合.由于雨季降雨量大,林冠截留、穿透水和茎流量都具有明显的季节性,穿透水和茎流量明显多于旱季,林冠截留率则明显小于旱季.全年林冠截留、穿透水和竹秆茎流量分别是283.10、1720.45和99.09 mm.年均林冠截留率、穿透率和竹秆茎流率分别为13.47%,81.82%和4.71%.在养分动态方面,在实验地分别实施全翻、带翻及扩穴(即按农户常规土壤管理,每年3月扩穴,不深翻)3 种不同的土壤垦复措施,结果显示全翻垦复措施地表径流的N,P,K的流失量最大,其中又以中K的流失量最大(3.84 kg/hm2),N,P,K的年流失量大小顺序为全翻>带翻>扩穴.就林地养分利用率而言,带翻是3 种措施中最高的为21.22%,其次为全翻为20.46%,最小为扩穴19.61%,且N、P和K的年盈余量也是3 种措施中最少的,分别为783.18 kg/hm2,120.68kg/hm2和184 .50kg/hm2,所以带翻的经营方式,在带来最好的经济效益的同时,不至于显著提高水土流失,是值得推广的一种麻竹林经营方式.     

植被覆盖度和综合治理对纸坊沟流域土壤氮素流失的影响

模拟降雨条件下玉米植株对降雨再分配过程的影响

为系统测定玉米(Zea mays)不同生长阶段的穿透雨、茎秆流和冠层截留,采用室内模拟降雨法测定了不同降雨强度、不同叶面积指数玉米冠下穿透雨和茎秆流,采用喷雾法测定了玉米不同生长阶段的冠层截留。对其进行了量化分析,并探讨了三者与玉米叶面积指数和降雨强度的关系,阐明了玉米冠下穿透雨的空间分布特征。结果表明:玉米冠下穿透雨量占冠上总降雨量比例为30.97%—94.02%,平均为63.92%;茎秆流量占降雨量比例的变化范围为5.68%—75.70%,平均为35.28%;冠层截留量在其全生育期内变化范围为0.02—0.43 mm,平均为0.16 mm,所占总降雨量比例最大仅为1%。随玉米生长,穿透雨量逐渐降低,茎秆流量和冠层截留量逐渐增加。穿透雨与茎秆流呈现此消彼长的关系,其中穿透雨率平均由93.55%降至36.23%;茎秆流率平均由5.98%增加至70.42%。降雨强度与穿透雨量和茎秆流量呈正相关关系,但是二者占总降雨量的比例与降雨强度关系不显著(P0.05)。随着玉米生长,穿透雨冠下空间分布由均匀逐渐趋向于不均匀,使降雨经过冠层后趋于向行中汇集,但在玉米生长后期,集中于行中的穿透雨量也因叶片衰败而随之降低。揭示了玉米对降雨的再分配作用特征,可为农田水分有效利用、农田生态水文过程机理和坡耕地土壤侵蚀防治提供理论依据。     

滇中常绿阔叶林及云南松林水文作用的初步研究

 本文研究了滇中地区山地常绿阔叶林及云南松林的林冠截留量,冠流和茎流量,地表水土流失量,林地枯枝落叶层持水量,土壤含水量以及雨水、冠流、茎流和地表迳流中营养元素(N、P、K、Ca和Mg)的含量,并分析比较了针、阔两类森林调节和涵养水分的作用和降水中林冠养分的淋溶、迁移特点,对了解滇中亚热带山地森林生态系统的功能和生产力的研究,对本区森林资源的保护,林业的合理经营,均有重要意义。     

USLE/RUSLE模型中植被因子变化特征及其影响因素

植被因子是USLE/RUSLE模型中最重要的影响因子,其数值变化特征及其影响因素广受关注。以广东省五华县源坑水小流域2011—2013年的径流小区次降雨水沙观测数据为基础,分析了径流小区C值在不同时间尺度的变化特征及其受降雨、植被类型的影响。研究表明:(1)不同时段间C值存在一定波动,其中旱季的C值均大于雨季,夏秋两季的C值较大,且较为接近。各径流小区的C值普遍存在11、8、7月较大,6、5、1月较小的现象,且草本植物C值受植被覆盖度影响较大。(2)降雨量与径流小区C值呈正相关关系,桉树、松树、糖蜜草径流小区C值与次降雨量、各降雨量区间平均值的相关系数分别为0.360**、0.349**、0.291**,0.912*、0.909*、0.822,相较于草本植物,木本植物的C值受降雨影响更大,仅以植被盖度衡量C值有待商榷。(3)相较裸土小区,桉树、松树、糖蜜草小区2011—2013年的土壤流失减幅分别为14.2%、21.5%、23.2%,其C值分别为0.814、0.748、0.772,3种植物中糖蜜草与松树均具有相对较好的水保效益,桉树的水保效益稍逊。     

A preliminary assessment of rain throughfall beneath Portulacaria afra canopy in subtropical thicket and its implications for soil carbon stocks

Subtropical thicket dominated by the leaf- and stem-succulent tree Potulacaria afra (spekboom) accumulates extraordinarily high amounts of soil organic carbon for a semi-arid ecosystem. This has been attributed to high leaf litter production of canopy trees — especially spekboom — and the relatively cool beneath-canopy temperatures, which reduces mineralization of organic matter. High rainfall interception by the dense thicket canopy may also contribute to reduced mineralization of soil organic carbon stocks via a reduced Birch effect (wet-dry cycles) and overall reduced moisture of organic matter. Here we provide preliminary data on one easily measurable component of canopy interception, namely throughfall, which is the amount of rain falling on the canopy that is not intercepted by the canopy or diverted as stemflow. For 23 rainfall events > 1 mm in the period Jan-Jun 2006, we measured 275 ± 21 mm gross rainfall at three spekboom thicket sites. Mean throughfall was 56.4% across all events and ≤ 20% for small (≤ 5 mm) events. These values are the lowest recorded in the literature. Throughfall in tropical and temperate forests ranges from 70 to 90%, Mediterranean woodland trees 70-80%, and Savanna trees 75-84%. The low rates of throughfall recorded in this study support the hypothesis that the extreme accumulation of soil organic carbon in thicket soils is partly due to interception of rainfall and concomitant constraints on soil microbial activity. The extraordinary high interception of rainfall by the spekboom thicket canopy warrants further research at the ecosystem level.     

北京山区干旱胁迫下侧柏叶片水分吸收策略

干旱与半干旱地区,水分是限制树木生长的重要影响因子。由于降水稀缺且分配不均,叶片吸收水分是此地区树木吸收和利用小量级降水和凝结水的主要方式。北京山区处于易旱少雨的生态脆弱地带,森林植被经常遭受干旱胁迫,所以对该地区的森林系统而言,叶片直接吸收利用截留的降雨是干旱时期树木获得水分的重要途径。基于野外对比控制试验和室内盆栽模拟试验,选取北京山区的主要造林树种侧柏为研究对象,进行利用天然降雨与模拟降雨试验,研究降雨前后侧柏叶片吸水特征,探究侧柏在干旱环境下如何通过叶片吸水缓解干旱胁迫。结果表明：当侧柏长期处于干旱胁迫状态时,叶片可以利用降雨,从中获益用来缓解树木的干旱胁迫状态;叶片的吸水能力与降雨强度呈正相关关系,与土壤含水率呈负相关关系;重度干旱下侧柏植株在降雨强度为15 mm/h时叶片吸水现象最明显,叶水势变化最大为(1.18±0.17) MPa,叶片含水率变化最大为(8.47±1.00)mg/cm~2;当土壤水率高于20.8%时,基本不发生叶片吸水现象。试验结果说明在干旱地区叶片吸水是树木除根系吸水外的重要水分来源方式,并且对干旱地区有效利用短缺水资源,减轻植物水分亏缺具有重要意义。     

小良试验站三种景观类型地表径流效应的对比研究

基于连续10年的观测,本文对比研究了3种植被类型的地表径流效应,证明了混交林的水文效益无论从哪方面都较桉树林和裸地明显,并且随着年度的的推移,混交林的水文效益更加突出。发生产流的最小降雨量条件为：混交林30.2mm,桉树林5.1mm,裸地6.0mm。产流发生时饱和上层厚度分别为12.6mm,3.4mm,和6.3mm。理论上,作者阐明了3种植被类型下的产流类型,提出了桉树林下地表更易形成击实层这样一个设想,这就为水土保持林的营造提供了一个极富实际意义的例子,为在海岸台地这样一个特殊生境下综合研究水土保持效益提供了资料。     

Enhancing tree belt productivity through capture of short‐slope runoff water

A selection of multi‐stemmed, drought‐tolerant mallee eucalypts, planted in belt form and integrated with crops in dryland agricultural areas of Australia, may be able to produce biomass as a commercially attractive feedstock for biofuel production. This study aimed to determine if small (40–50 cm high) bunds along mallee belts could trap otherwise underutilized surface water runoff within paddocks, thereby increasing water available to the mallee trees and their growth rates. An experiment was established in 5 year‐old Eucalyptus polybractea (RT Baker) mallee belts near the town of Narrogin in the central wheatbelt area of Western Australia. Bunds led to significant (12%) increases in biomass accumulation after about 2 years and 35% increases at around 3 years. Bunds also led to significant increases in predawn leaf water potential and significant decreases in soil water deficit within 12 months, which persisted for the remainder of the 39 month trial. We suggest that the increase in biomass accumulation was largely due to increased water availability, but that increased nutrient supply from run‐on and trapping of organic residues may have also had some effect on bunded plots, despite our attempts to mitigate this effect by experimentally adding nutrients to all treatments. Results show that installing bunds along mallee belts would be a cost‐effective investment at sites where within‐paddock runoff is likely (i.e. gently sloping and with a loamy sand or heavier soil texture). Installation costs should be offset by improved biomass production within a few years and ongoing improvements in growth over the long term.     

鼎湖山地带性植被及其不同演替阶段水文学过程长期对比研究

分析鼎湖山3种植被类型生态系统水文的长期连续观测资料,采用时空互代的方法,得到如下一些结果:1)鼎湖山自然保护区东沟集水区产水量达到降水量的66.5%,日径流量高峰的出现相对降水的发生滞后1d左右。2)地下水位平均稳定在2.22m,最低为2.84m,最高为1.14m。1999、2000、2001、2002和2003年地下水位平均值分别为2.38,2.27,2.08,2.13和2.11m。鼎湖山东沟集水区每日地下水位与前16d每一天的降水量相关。3)随着时间推移3种不同的植物群落中土壤含水量都有减少的趋势。季风林(p<0.01)和混交林(p<0.05)的土壤含水量减少趋势具有统计上的显著性,松林除外。4)鼎湖山3个处于不同演替阶段的植物群落其穿透水量与大气降水皆呈线性相关,它们的R2值随演替的进展而减小。穿透水占大气降水的比例也随演替进展而减少,松林、混交林和季风林分别为83.4%、68.3%和59.9%。松林、混交林和季风林的树干茎流占大气降水的比例分别为1.9%、6.5%和8.3%。树干茎流和胸径的关系受控于整个群落整体的影响而不仅仅是某个单一物种,并且群落的郁闭程度和结构是影响降水在林内再次分配的关键因素。季风林2月大气降水28.7mm林冠截流率为83.3%,而在大气降水为297.8mm的6月林冠截留率仅为18.9%,并且随着植物群落的演替,从松林、混交林到季风林的过程中林冠截留逐渐增大。

为了揭示北京山区不同植被类型土壤水分对不同强度降雨的响应过程,选取北京山区内侧柏、荆条灌丛、荒草地为研究对象,基于2022年6—10月降雨和土壤水分的连续观测数据,分析土壤水分对不同降雨事件的响应特征。结果表明：(1)观测期内研究区降雨事件主要由小雨构成,小雨事件的总降雨量占总降雨量的14.78%,小雨事件对土壤水分的响应深度可达到40—60 cm土层;中雨、大雨、暴雨事件的总降雨量占总降雨量的85.52%,中雨、大雨、暴雨事件对土壤水分的响应深度均可达到60—80 cm土层;大降雨事件对土壤水分的补给作用更明显,降雨量越大,降雨能补给的土层深度越深,土壤水分补给效果越好。(2)三种植被平均土壤水分补给速率大小依次为荒草地>侧柏>荆条灌丛,说明降雨对荒草地的补给效果最好;土层活跃程度对植被土壤水分有影响,土层越活跃,土壤水分波动越大,三种植被平均土壤水分变异系数大小依次为荒草地>荆条灌丛>侧柏,而三种植被平均土壤储水量大小则依次为侧柏>荒草地>荆条灌丛,说明侧柏的土壤水分最为稳定。(3)荒草地、荆条灌丛剖面上各层土壤水分逐渐减少,侧柏则增加,说明土壤...     

鹤山丘陵草坡的水文特征及水量平衡

 在中国科学院鹤山丘陵综合开放实验站的草坡集水区对大气降水和径流进行了连续4年的观测,并于1994年对该集水区的蒸散进行了测定,结果表明：1)鹤山丘陵区年均降水量1761.37mm,大气降水有明显的干湿季之分,干季降水量占全年降水量的12.47％,湿季占87.53％。年均降水量中有62.24％可引起地表产流,即年均产流降水量1096.3mm。产流降水以中、小雨频度为大,但产流水量主要由大、暴雨供给。文中根据降雨量较大地区的降水、产流特征和规律,提出了产流降水和产流水量的概念。2)鹤山丘陵草坡集水区年总径流系数50.12％,地表径流系数17.33％。地表径流主要集中在湿季产生,与降水量呈二次抛物线型回归关系,与降水强度关系不大。3)1994年水量平衡各分量中,实际降水输入1841.55mm,年径流量970.28mm,径流系数52．69％,径流是系统的最大输出项;蒸散量851.56mm,意味着年降水收入中46.24％的水量以汽态形式返回了大气。蒸散的月变化呈双峰型,不同于降水的季节分配,径流的月变化则与降水同步。系统蓄水年变化量19.71mm,约占年降水量的1.07％,但其月变化却非常大,在一68～104mm之间。草坡集水区的水量平衡是一种收入对支出的补给和收支项目中可变性的动态平衡。4)鹤山丘陵草坡水热季节分配失衡、产流降水量和地表径流量大是这种退化生态系统恢复的3个限制因素;认为退化生态系统恢复过程中系统水量支出和蓄留方式的转变是退化生态系统的恢复机理之一。     

Effect of forest and grassland vegetation on soil hydrology in Mátra Mountains (Hungary)

Water retention characteristics, rainfall, throughfall and soil water content dynamics were investigated in a low mountain area to compare a forest and a grassland. The soil water retention curve of the topsoil has similar shape in both studied areas, however that of the deeper soil layer shows more difference. We determined the precipitation depth, duration and intensity values of rainfall events. The relationship between rainfall and throughfall depth was described in linear regressions. Interception was calculated as the difference between rainfall and throughfall plus stemflow, assuming stemflow to be 3% of rainfall. Soil water content dynamics show a similar trend in the two vegetation types but the drying is more intensive in the forest in the soil layers deeper than 20 cm during the growing-season.     

三峡库区土质道路侵蚀产沙过程的模拟降雨试验

以三峡库区王家桥小流域为研究区,通过野外调查选择了5个典型路段,在1.0 mm min~(-1)模拟降雨条件下研究了土质道路降雨-径流-泥沙关系.结果表明,土质道路被高度压实,但使用强度和管护方式差异致使容重、路面浮土、杂草盖度、饱和导水率等差异显著.土质道路仅需1～3 mm降雨就能产生地表径流,7～10 mm的降雨使径流趋于稳定,径流系数超过60%,特别是车流量较大干道的径流系数超过70%,平均和峰值径流量达0.69 mm min~(-1)和0.84 mm min~(-1).土质路面大量浮土致使初始径流含沙量高,然后快速下降并趋于稳定.由于路面浮土量大和在降雨过程中能形成人工细沟的车辙等导致较大车流量干道的土壤流失率是其它路段3～4倍.土质道路的容重和路面浮土与径流系数和土壤流失量呈显著正相关,饱和导水率则呈显著负相关;路面杂草能显著减少径流,防治路面侵蚀.     

川西亚高山不同暗针叶林群落类型的冠层降水截留特征

在林分和小流域尺度上,应用模型研究了四川卧龙亚高山暗针叶林冠层的降水截留特征.结果表明:生长季节(5—10月),箭竹-岷江冷杉原始林冠层截留系数在33%～72%之间,平均48%;冠层截留量与降水量之间呈显著的线性关系,截留系数与降水量之间呈负指数函数关系;试验小流域内,植被冠层最大截留量的平均值为1.74mm,不同林分间的差异显著,其顺序为藓类-箭竹-岷江冷杉林>草类-箭竹-岷江冷杉林>藓类-杜鹃-岷江冷杉林>草类-杜鹃-岷江冷杉林>杜鹃灌丛;冠层最大截留量与叶面积指数(LAI)之间呈极显著的线性关系;冠层截留量、冠层最大截留量、附加截留量分别占同期降水量的39%、25%和14%.所选模型对整个生长季平均截留量的模拟效果较好,相对误差为9%～14%.
