## Abstract We investigated the potential effects of rainfall intensity smoothing by forest canopies on slope stability by modelling soil responses to measured rainfall and throughfall during highβintensity rain. Field measurements showed that maximum intensities of precipitation were generally red

Extensive measurements of stomatal resistance using a porometer in a maple-beech hardwood forest over two growing seasons and at two different canopy levels are described. The analysis permits a generalization that yields a final equation relating overall canopy resistance to solar irradiance and so
To evaluate an interactive eect of snow on energy exchange between the forest and atmosphere, the energy balance above a forest was measured continuously between February and April of 1997 in the Hitsujigaoka Experimental Forest, Sapporo, northern Japan. The forest was a dense, 23-year-old, conifero
Rainfall interception in forests is influenced by properties of the canopy that tend to vary over small distances. Our objectives were: (i) to determine the variables needed to model the interception loss of the canopy of a lower montane forest in south Ecuador, i.e. the storage capacity of the leav
