let's do some ecohydrology!



Most of our study area is covered by pine and eucalyptus trees, which intercept quite a considerable amount of precipitation. To estimate the interception loss, Jouke, Bea, Stefan and I set up 4 throughfall gutters which were made by one of the groups last year (Thanks a lot!) . But the ecohydrology doesn't stop here yet! At another site all the groups installed 4 sapflow devices together. We hope to get an idea on how much pine and eucalyptus trees transpire and if we can link the daily variation to data from the Meteo-Tower
