abstract = {Forest canopy interception alters the isotopic tracer
signal of precipitation leading to significant isotopic
differences between open precipitation (δOP) and
throughfall (δTF). This has important consequences for the
tracer-based modeling of streamwater transit times. Some
studies have suggested using a simple static correction to
δOP by uniformly increasing it because δTF is rarely
available for hydrological modeling. Here, we used data from
a 38.5 ha spruce forested headwater catchment where three
years of δOP and δTF were available to develop a data
driven method that accounts for canopy effects on δOP.
Changes in isotopic composition, defined as the difference
δTF-δOP, varied seasonally with higher values during
winter and lower values during summer. We used this pattern
to derive a corrected δOP time series and analyzed the
impact of using (1) δOP, (2) reference throughfall data
(δTFref) and (3) the corrected δOP time series (δOPSine)
in estimating the fraction of young water (Fyw), i.e., the
percentage of streamflow younger than two to three months.
We found that Fyw derived from δOPSine came closer to
δTFref in comparison to δOP. Thus, a seasonally-varying
correction for δOP can be successfully used to infer δTF
where it is not available and is superior to the method of
using a fixed correction factor. Seasonal isotopic
enrichment patterns should be accounted for when estimating
Fyw and more generally in catchment hydrology studies using
other tracer methods to reduce uncertainty.},
