Evaluation of the effect of land vegetation cover on water and energy balance of an unsaturated pyroclastic cover

Land cover features can strongly affect the actual soil wetting state; for example, the presence of a vegetated cover can induce relevant variations in the main components of soil-atmosphere water balance: interception and evapotranspiration. For these reasons, its proper characterization represents...
