摘要由于被强迫向上的东北信风的绝热冷却，在800至1600海里之间的马德拉岛迎风一侧经常形成云带。温带月桂林是该云带海拔范围内最常见的植被。通过比较一个水文年的降雨量和穿透降雨量来估算云水截留量。在65天内(3 mm d−1)，总降水量为200毫米(占降雨量的8%)，在较干旱的月份似乎构成了较大比例的水分输入。整个降雨过程中量规标准差与穿透降雨量之间的多元线性回归表明，在降雨开始之前，云的截留是常见的。它在月桂森林生态水文学和该岛水文学中的作用应得到承认。应该优先对这一问题进行进一步研究，以便更好地了解这些动态，并为正确管理这片受保护的森林和该岛的地下水资源提供工具。编辑Z.W.Kundzewicz引文Figueira，C.，Meneze de Sequeira，M.，Vasconelos，R.，Prada，S.，2013。马德拉岛温带月桂森林中的云水截留。水文科学学报，58(1)，1-10。
Abstract A cloud belt frequently forms on the windward side of Madeira Island, between 800 and 1600 m a.s.l., as a result of adiabatic cooling of the northeastern trade winds that are forced upward. Temperate laurel forest is the most common vegetation inside that cloud belt altitudinal range. Cloud water interception was estimated by comparing precipitation and throughfall during a hydrological year. It totalled 200 mm (8% of rainfall) during 65 days (3 mm d−1) and seems to constitute a larger fraction of water input during drier months. Multiple linear regression between gauge standard deviation and throughfall throughout rain events shows that cloud interception is common before the onset of rainfall. Its role in the ecohydrology of laurel forest and in the island's hydrology should be acknowledged. Further studies on this issue should be a priority in order to better understand these dynamics and provide tools for the correct management of this protected forest and the island's groundwater resources.
