Latent heat in soil heat flux measurements

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2010
Abstract The surface energy balance includes a term for soil heat flux. Soil heat flux is difficult to measure because it includes conduction and convection heat transfer processes. Accurate representation of soil heat flux is an important consideration in many modeling and measurement applications. Yet, there remains uncertainty about what comprises

A Satellite-Based Model for Estimating Latent Heat Flux From Urban Vegetation

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The impacts of extreme heat events are amplified in cities due to unique urban thermal properties. Urban greenspace mitigates high temperatures through evapotranspiration and shading; however, quantification of vegetative cooling potential in cities is ...

Global Investigation of Soil Moisture and Latent Heat Flux Coupling Strength. [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resour Res, 2018
AbstractAs a key variable in the climate system, soil moisture (SM) plays a central role in the Earth's terrestrial water, energy, and biogeochemical cycles through its coupling with surface latent heat flux (LH). Despite the need to accurately represent SM/LH coupling in Earth system models, we currently lack quantitative, observation‐based, and ...

Wind‐driven latent heat flux and the intraseasonal oscillation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2008
The importance of tropical west Pacific wind‐driven latent heat flux anomalies for supporting boreal winter intraseasonal precipitation variability is analyzed during 1998–2005 using satellite and in‐situ observations. Intraseasonal (30–100 day) wind speed anomalies from QuikSCAT are significantly correlated with TRMM precipitation anomalies, with ...

Fetch Effect on Flux-Variance Estimations of Sensible and Latent Heat Fluxes of Camellia Sinensis [PDF]

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Precise estimation of surface-atmosphere exchange is a major challenge in micrometeorology. Previous literature presented the eddy covariance (EC) as the most reliable method for the measurements of such fluxes. Nevertheless, the EC technique is quite expensive and complex, hence other simpler methods are sought.

A Study of the Influence of Environmental Factors on Water–Heat Exchange Process in Alpine Wetlands

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Wetlands, which are composed of soil, vegetation and water, have sufficient water supply and are sensitive to climate change. This study analyzes the coupling degree between wetlands and atmosphere and discusses the influence of environmental factors ...
