The book presents improved equations for monthly water resources
models, in particular for interception and transpiration. Most of
the existing monthly models do not make a distinction between
interception and transipiration, while this distinction is very
important for management purposes. Interception is direct feedback
to the atmosphere, important to sustain rainfall. Transpiration is
a good indicator for plant growth and biomass production. This
distinction also contributes to the estimation of recharge and
therewith of runoff.;The derivations are based on the Markov theory
for the occurrence of rain-days. The methodology can be used on the
basis of an analysis of a few time series of daily data, at a
spatial scale of 300km and not necessarily of the same period as
the monthly data. Zimbabwe served as the case study, but derived
equations can be used worldwide as long as the relationship between
the monthly rainfall and the mean number of rain-days can be
established.
