A Method Proposal for Throughfall Measurement in Grassland at Plot Scale in Temperate Climate: ‘Interception Tubes’

While net precipitation entering the soil is commonly measured in woody ecosystems, there is a lack of field measurements for herbaceous vegetation. Small canopy heights and fragile stem structures are the primary challenges for net precipitation sampling in grasslands under field conditions. We des...
