Although stemflow oftentimes only represents a small portion of net precipitation in forests, it
creates hot spots of water input that can affect subsurface storm-flow dynamics. The …

Trees concentrate rainfall to near-stem soils via stemflow. When canopy structures are
organized appropriately, stemflow can even induce preferential flow through soils …

Tree canopy processes affect the volume and biogeochemistry of inputs to the hydrological
cycle in cities. From June 2012 to November 2013, we studied stemflow production from 37 …

In stemflow, rainfall is collected and channeled to a concentrated soil water input. It can
constitute up to 30% of incident precipitation in some ecosystems. However, the size of the …

Stemflow, despite being a small proportion of gross rainfall, is an important and
understudied flux of water in forested areas. Recent studies have highlighted its complexity …

This study aimed at analysing the effects of biological and meteorological factors on
stemflow generation in a temperate mixed oak (Quercus petraea Liebl.) and beech (Fagus …

The spatial variability of stemflow on the bole of trees has rarely been the focal point of
stemflow studies, despite its potential importance for stemflow‐induced changes to soils …

Numerous studies investigated the influence of abiotic (meteorological conditions) and biotic
factors (tree characteristics) on stemflow generation. Although these studies identified the …

An increasing number of studies have examined the effects of various biotic and abiotic
factors on stemflow production. Of those that have ascribed the importance of canopy …

Stemflow has distinguishable effects on the hydrology and biogeochemistry of wooded
ecosystems. Nonetheless, it is a relatively poorly understood hydrologic process. No known …
