Relationships between rainfall parameters and interception by tropical forest
The process of rainfall interception by vegetation is discussed. Using data from an East African experiment, relationships between interception and various rainfall parameters are analysed and the reliability of predictive equations assessed.

| Zusammenfassung: | The process of rainfall interception by vegetation is discussed. Using data from an East African experiment, relationships between interception and various rainfall parameters are analysed and the reliability of predictive equations assessed. Simple relationships appeared to be as valid for prediction as more complex ones, although in general the results were rather unsatisfactory. |
