Trees help create rain by putting moisture into the atmosphere through their leaves.

EDIT: Trees themselves don't cause rain. However evapotranspiration takes place where water evaporates from the leaves of a tree before water (from rain) touches the ground.

Why you cannot place a rain gauge near trees?

Placing a rain gauge near trees can lead to inaccurate measurements because trees can obstruct the flow of rainwater into the gauge. Tree branches and leaves can act as barriers, causing rainwater to be deflected away from the gauge or trapped in the canopy, leading to underestimation of the actual rainfall. To get accurate measurements, it's best to place the rain gauge in an open area away from any obstacles that may interfere with rain collection.


Why is a rain gauge kept in open space away from trees and buildings?

A rain gauge ( an instrument used for the measurement of rain ) is not kept in open space away from trees and buildings so as to prevent the rain water collected in the buildings and trees from falling into the rain gauge.


Which is more sensitive to acid rain trees or fish?

Fish are more sensitive to acid rain than trees. Acid rain can lower the pH levels of water bodies, making it more acidic and harmful to aquatic life like fish. Trees can also be affected by acid rain, but fish are generally more vulnerable due to their direct exposure to water contaminated with acidic compounds.


The force that pulls everything downward causeing rain and soil to run down a slope?

Gravity is the force that pulls everything downward, causing rain and soil to run down a slope. This gravitational force is responsible for the movement of water and soil on Earth's surface.


How can acid rain affect trees such as pines and spruce?

Acid rain is a mixture of pollutants in the atmosphere as well as natural waste. When this falls, it can, over time, damage and corrode plants, rocks, and other living things. This can be seen in many old statues. Trees such as pines and spruce can be damaged by acid rain. It can eventually eat away roots and rot the inside of the trees. This can also be a problem because the most acidic rain falls the farthest north, where these trees are located.

How does deforestation increases the likelihood of mudflows?

The trees roots are responsible for keeping soil intact, especially the larger ones. When rain pours, water does not get absorbed by the soil and flows down in silt and mud causing devastation in its path.


Why do rain forest lack vegetation?

vegetation in tropical rain forests is dominated by tall trees, and little undergrowth because the tall trees block the sunlight and rain from reaching the forest floor, causing growth of other, lower vegetation to be prohibited.


What is relation between tree and rain?

The relationship between trees and rain is complex because trees not only need rain for growth, but they also act as rainfall interceptors in forest areas. This affects evapotranspiration, which is responsible for the movement of water to the air. This process can help with global warming.
