5 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is interception in the hydrological cycle?
Think about what happens to rain when it hits leaves.
Define throughfall.
Consider what happens after water has been temporarily held by leaves.
What does interception refer to?
Think about what happens to rain when it first falls.
True or False: Increased rainfall intensity generally allows for more interception.
Consider the difference between a heavy storm and a light rain.
Given a scenario where light rain persists for three days, analyze the expected interception versus a scenario where a heavy storm occurs for one day. Include factors like canopy density and type of vegetation in your analysis.
Consider how different types of vegetation react to prolonged light rain versus intense storms.
Evaluate the impact of changing meteorological conditions (temperature, wind speed) on the interception rates in urban versus forested areas.
Think about how urban designs differ from natural environments in terms of interception.
