[texhax] Q: paragraph spacing after using supertabular

Hi, 
I am using supertabular, but encounted a problem with the paragraph 
spacing after using generating a supertable. I hope someone can help 
me. 


Before the table there is a white line between the paragraphs in the 
final output, forced by \\ and an empty line in the code. After the 
table the white line in the output is gone, although I still use \\ + 
empty line in the code. 


Does anyone know, how I get the white line back also after using the 
supertabular?? 


Below an example of the code, which shows the difference between 
paragraph spacing before and after the supertabular. 


Thanks! 
Miriam

isotope fractionation. Since transpiration does not fractionate water 
and interception evaporation does, this could be a way of separating 
the two evaporation processes.

A remarkable difference between canopy and forest floor interception 
is the relatively small interception storage capacity 
he forest floor. On the other hand, the canopy has a larger 
evaporative potential compared to forest floor \citep{Baird1999}. The 
higher evaporative potential is caused by more turbulent wind fluxes 
at the canopy level and more available radiation.\\ 


Another important difference is the large seasonal influence on canopy 
interception and the rather constant  considered.\\
