In Hydrology, throughfall is the process which describes how wet leaves shed excess water onto the ground surface. These drops have greater erosive power because they are heavier than rain drops. Furthermore, where there is a high canopy, falling drops may reach terminal velocity, about 8 metres (26 ft), thus maximizing the drop's erosive potential. Throughfall is a crucial process when designing pesticides for foliar application since it will condition their washing and the fate of potential pollutants in the environment.

  • Als Kronendurchlass bezeichnet man in der Hydrologie den Niederschlag, der durch das Kronendach eines Baumbestandes fällt. Zusammen mit dem Stammabfluss ergibt er den Bestandsniederschlag, das heißt den Niederschlag unter einem Kronen- bzw. Blätterdach. Dieser ist in der Regel geringer als der Niederschlag über dem Bestand bzw. über freiem Boden, da er durch Interzeption verringert wird. In Wolken- und Nebelwäldern kann es jedoch durchaus so sein, dass die Vegetation zusätzliches Wasser aus den Wolken auskämmt und der Bestandsniederschlag deutlich erhöht ist. (de)

Furthermore, where there is a high canopy, falling drops may reach terminal velocity, about 8 metres (26 ft), thus maximizing the drop's erosive potential. Rates of throughfall are higher in areas of forest where the leaves are broad-leaved. This is because the flat leaves allow water to collect. Drip-tips also facilitate throughfall. Rates of throughfall are lower in coniferous forests as conifers can only hold individual droplets of water on their needles. Throughfall is a crucial process when designing pesticides for foliar application since it will condition their washing and the fate of potential pollutants in the environment. (en)
