Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to its Projected Area given Interception Loss Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area = (Interception Loss-Interception Storage)/(Evaporation Rate*Duration of the Rainfall)
Ki = (Ii-Si)/(E*t)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area - Ratio of vegetal surface area to projected area is the factor contributing for Rainfall and levels off to a constant value for specified storms.
Interception Loss - (Measured in Millimeter) - Interception Loss is the portion of the precipitation that is returned to the atmosphere through evaporation from plant surfaces or is absorbed by the plant.
Interception Storage - (Measured in Millimeter) - Interception Storage is the ability of vegetation surfaces to collect and retain Precipitation.
Evaporation Rate - (Measured in Millimeter per Hour) - Evaporation Rate is the rate at which a material will vaporize.
Duration of the Rainfall - (Measured in Hour) - Duration of the Rainfall corresponding to rainfall depth is the total time during which the precipitation occurs.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Interception Loss: 8.7 Millimeter --> 8.7 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Interception Storage: 1.2 Millimeter --> 1.2 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Evaporation Rate: 2.5 Millimeter per Hour --> 2.5 Millimeter per Hour No Conversion Required
Duration of the Rainfall: 1.5 Hour --> 1.5 Hour No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ki = (Ii-Si)/(E*t) --> (8.7-1.2)/(2.5*1.5)
Evaluating ... ...
Ki = 2
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
2 <-- Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

5 Interception Calculators

Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to its Projected Area given Interception Loss
Go Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area = (Interception Loss-Interception Storage)/(Evaporation Rate*Duration of the Rainfall)
Duration of rainfall given interception loss
Go Duration of the Rainfall = (Interception Loss-Interception Storage)/(Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area*Evaporation Rate)
Evaporation rate given interception Loss
Go Evaporation Rate = (Interception Loss-Interception Storage)/(Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area*Duration of the Rainfall)
Interception storage given interception loss
Go Interception Storage = Interception Loss-(Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area*Evaporation Rate*Duration of the Rainfall)
Interception Loss
Go Interception Loss = Interception Storage+(Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area*Evaporation Rate*Duration of the Rainfall)

Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to its Projected Area given Interception Loss Formula

Ratio of Vegetal Surface Area to Projected Area = (Interception Loss-Interception Storage)/(Evaporation Rate*Duration of the Rainfall)
Ki = (Ii-Si)/(E*t)

What is Interception?

Interception is the part of the rainfall that is intercepted by the earth's surface and which subsequently evaporates. In this definition the earth's surface includes everything that becomes wet after a rainfall event and that dries out soon after. It includes: vegetation, soil surface, litter, build-up surface, etc.
