IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022 Earth's energy budget is a major force that drives global climate. The long-term pattern of land surface energy budget with pronounced biophysical effects on climate was normally ignored at a regional scale, particularly in Pakistan.

High-resolution land surface fluxes from satellite and reanalysis data (HOLAPS v1.0): evaluation and uncertainty assessment [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2016 Surface water and energy fluxes are essential components of the Earth system. Surface latent heat fluxes provide major energy input to the atmosphere. Despite the importance of these fluxes, state-of-the-art data sets of surface energy and water fluxes ...

Uncertainty characterization of HOAPS 3.3 latent heat-flux-related parameters [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2017 Abstract. Latent heat flux (LHF) is one of the main contributors to the global energy budget. As the density of in situ LHF measurements over the global oceans is generally poor, the potential of remotely sensed LHF for meteorological applications is enormous.
