Question 1
What does the interception coefficient represent?
- A measure of temperature
- A value reflecting vegetation's ability to intercept precipitation
- The total precipitation
💡 Hint: Think about what helps plants catch rain.
Question 2
True or False: Empirical methods rely on theoretical models rather than field observations.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A region has an annual precipitation of 1200 mm with an interception coefficient of 0.25 for its forested area. Calculate the total interception loss for the year.
💡 Hint: Use the formula I = P × C and substitute in the values.
Question 2
Examine the effects of changing vegetation density on interception coefficients and analyze how this would impact water runoff for two different ecosystems: a dense forest vs. a sparse grassland.
💡 Hint: Think about the definitions of interception and how vegetation types influence water retention.
