New data for water losses from mature Sitka spruce plantations in temperate upland catchments / Nouvelles données pour les pertes d’eau de plantations adultes de sapins de Sitka en bassins versants tempérés d’altitude

Abstract: Accurate estimates of water losses from mature Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) plantations in the UK uplands are required to assess the sustainability of water supply in the event of land-use change. Many investigations have demonstrated that afforestation increases water losses from temperate upland catchments, to up to 40% of annual site rainfall. In a 0.86 km 2 upland water supply catchment in southwest Scotland, interception loss in a Sitka spruce-dominated 37-year old plantation, was 52% of annual precipi… Show more
