Abstract:
A method to obtain estimates of the volume of fogwater collected by a tree
canopy in complex terrain is described.
Included are assumptions about
the shape and spacing of the trees and their fogwater collection efficiency.
A key component is the use of a computer model for wind flow in complex
terrain.
The fogwater volume results enable a mapping of wet deposition
patterns of acidic ions.
Fog chemistry data from the Roundtop Mountain
complex in southern Quebec are used for calibration purposes.
1 Introduction
To evaluate the impact of cloudwater chemistry on high-elevation forests
in the Chemistry of High Elevation Fog (CHEF) project, Schernenauer*
suggested that estimates of the spatial distribution of ...
