Rainforest Interception

Rainforest Interception is a hydrological process model that quantifies the portion of incident rainfall retained by the forest canopy in tropical rainforests, distinguishing itself from general interception models through its incorporation of high biomass density, multi-layered canopy structure, and persistent wet-canopy conditions characteristic of equatorial climates.
