Title: Throughfall, stemflow, and interception loss due to Acacia mangium at Universiti Malaysia Sabah
Abstract: This paper presents a study to measured throughfall, stemflow, and interception loss by Acacia mangium at Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Sabah, Malaysia between November 2004 to January 2005. The main objective of this study is to provide an estimate rate of throughfall, stemflow, and, interception loss from Acacia mangium. Measured total
rainfall during this 3 month was 88.7 mm. Throughfall and sternflow comprised 56.3 mm (63.5%) and 3.0 mm (3.4 %), of the total rainfall respectively. These resulted interception
losses fractions were estimated at 29.4 mm (33.1 %). Both throughfall and stemflow showed strong linear correlations against daily rainfall with r2 values of 0.97 and 0.92.
Descriptive analyses of the data show regression in total rainfall-throughfall, rainfallstemflow, and rainfall-interception
