Foliage temperature and latent heat flux of irrigated wheat
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 1991Abstract A series of 42 hourly measurements from a weighing lysimeter of foliage temperature provided a basis from which to evaluate the residual energy balance method for determining latent heat flux which incorporated foliage temperature measurements by an infrared thermometer.

Remote sensing of surface sensible and latent heat fluxes
Proceedings of IGARSS '93 - IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002The potential for radar/lidar remote sensing of the surface sensible and latent heat fluxes is discussed, and some preliminary results are given. The method utilizes a parameterization scheme involving observables measured by radar/lidar in the convective boundary layer. >

Partitioning of latent heat flux at a northern peatland
Aquatic Botany, 2007Abstract The partitioning of latent heat flux ( Q E ) to vascular plant and moss surface components was assessed for a Sphagnum -dominated bog with a hummock–hollow surface having a sparse canopy of low shrubs. Results from porometry and eddy covariance measurements of Q E showed evaporation from the moss surface ranged from greater than 50% of ...

Estimating daytime latent heat flux and evapotranspiration in Jamaica
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2000The suitability of the two-parameter scheme of De Bruin and Holtslag (1982) to estimate daytime latent heat flux and evapotranspiration in Jamaica was examined using meteorological data collected over fields of short grass. The study covered three different periods, January to February of 1994, January to February of 1990, and August to September of ...

Latent Heat Fluxes Through Soft Materials With Microtruss Architectures
Journal of Heat Transfer, 2008Microscale truss architectures provide high mechanical strength, light weight, and open porosity in polymer sheets. Liquid evaporation and transport of the resulting vapor through truss voids cool nearby surfaces. Thus, microtruss materials can simultaneously prevent mechanical and thermal damage.

Tropical Gravity Wave Momentum Fluxes and Latent Heating Distributions
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2015Recent satellite determinations of global distributions of absolute gravity wave (GW) momentum fluxes in the lower stratosphere show maxima over the summer subtropical continents and little evidence of GW momentum fluxes associated with the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ).

Flux-Variance Method for Latent Heat and Carbon Dioxide Fluxes in Unstable Conditions
Boundary-Layer Meteorology, 2009Applied previously to momentum and heat fluxes, the present study extends the flux-variance method to latent heat and CO2 fluxes in unstable conditions. Scalar similarity is also examined among temperature (θ), water vapour (q), and CO2 (c). Temperature is adopted as the reference scalar, leading to two feasible strategies to estimate latent heat and ...

High frequency wind-related seasonal mean latent heat flux changes
Climate Dynamics, 2020Surface latent heat flux (LHF) is an important component in the heat exchange between ocean and atmosphere. Seasonal mean LHF changes are often interpreted using seasonal mean wind changes. The present study analyzes the high-frequency wind-induced seasonal mean LHF changes.

Normalized Difference Latent Heat Index for Remote Sensing of Land Surface Energy Fluxes
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2019Latent heat is the energy released or absorbed by a substance through phase change without changing its temperature. Its flux is a crucial element of the hydrological cycle at the land–air interface.

The surface latent heat flux anomalies related to major earthquake
SPIE Proceedings, 2011SLHF (Surface Latent Heat Flux) is an atmospheric parameter, which can describe the heat released by phase changes and dependent on meteorological parameters such as surface temperature, relative humidity, wind speed etc. There is a sharp difference between the ocean surface and the land surface.
