ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.agrformet.2008.09.002 | Abstract: | Throughfall determined by stationary and mobile methods in a disturbed evergreen-dominated forest stand in northern Thailand was 82% of rainfall (1134 mm) during a 4-month study period in the monsoon rain season of 2002. Associated coefficients of variation and standard errors were ?10% and 2%, respectively, for both methods. Agreement between four stationary trough collectors and 20 mobile standard gauge collectors was achieved only after 35 sampling occasions, having a total rainfall depth >700 mm, and included one storm event >100 mm. Several canopy trees contributed to points with throughfall > rainfall by channeling stemflow to common drip points on the trunk and large limbs. However, no significant correlation was observed between throughfall point measurements and corresponding canopy cover. Although 180-point measurements of throughfall provided a realistic representation of the spatial variability within the 500-m2 forest stand, it is questionable that they duplicated the basin-scale variability, which would be affected both by tree gaps and variable topographically related rain shadow effects. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.
