Descrição
Forests provide important ecosystem services, several of them related to water. The interconnections between rainfall interception and the water cycle vary among the forest types. Tropical forests are one of the most relevant biodiversity shelters, with several endemic plant and animal species. These forests provide key ecohydrological services by directly acting on biogeochemical cycles and water supply. Understanding these interconnections is crucial for better planning forest conservation and reforestation initiatives, especially under climate change conditions. Therefore, a set of techniques and devices is required to monitor rainfall–forest interface processes in tropical forests as they are very complex ecosystems. In this chapter, we intend to assess rainfall-forest interface processes as well as some of the methods that have been used for quantifying rainfall interception in forests, contributing to the ecohydrological studies.
