  In hydrology, the term is generally applied to the water flowing in a natural channel as distinct from a canal.  More generally, it is applied to the water flowing in any channel, natural, or artificial.

Interception - In hydrology, the precipitation that is 'caught' or intercepted by the vegetation canopy covering the ground and not immediately available to surface and sub-surface processes.

Therefore, foresters need to have a wide appreciation and basic understanding of geology, hydrology, climatology, soil chemistry, and soil physics in order to the best stewards of the forest resource.
