For a low to moderate fire intensity,where the death of mature trees is usually minimal,the major impact on vegetation is removal of the understorey and some leaf scorching of the midstorey,with little impact on the upper-storey canopy.This has several effects on catchment water balance.Interception losses are reduced when the leaf area index of a site declines,as occurs after leaf scorch and subsequent leaf drop.Consequently the amount of water lost from the site as surface flow often increases,and recharge to soil water stores can increase.This water may be available to the remaining tree canopy or may increase the amount of groundwater recharge.Increased surface flows are associated with increased loss of soil and reduced stream quality as sediment and nutrient loads to the stream increase (discussed below).Increased evaporation from the soil surface also occurs,partly because of the increase in soil moisture resulting from increased rainfall reaching the ground and partly because of the increase in solar radiation and wind speed which occur because of the loss of the understorey and mid-storey leaf layers.
