Representing low-intensity fire sensible heat output in a mesoscale atmospheric model with a canopy submodel: a case study with ARPS-CANOPY (version 5.2.12) [PDF]
Mesoscale models are a class of atmospheric numerical model designed to simulate atmospheric phenomena with horizontal scales of about 2–200 km, although they are also applied to microscale phenomena with horizontal scales of less than about 2 km ...

Sensible heat fluxes control cloud trail strength
AbstractConvective cloud bands known as “cloud trails” (CTs) are commonly found downwind of small islands (<(100) km2) throughout the world. They occur primarily in the afternoon, and are known to form in response to land–sea contrasts under the presence of background flow.

Sensible Heat Flux From Arid Regions: A Simple Flux‐Variance Method [PDF]
Similarity models in the inner region of the unstable atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) are generally based on four dimensional parameters: buoyancy, friction velocity, surface heat flux, and the height above the land surface. In the free convection limit the friction velocity can be neglected, thus reducing the measurement needs in practical ...

Sensible Heat Fluxes over an Urban Area—Vancouver, B.C. [PDF]
The use of the eddy correlation technique is demonstrated for the measurement of sensible heat transfer in an urban area. The problems of time and space sampling (in the horizontal and vertical) are investigated. Based on 27 summer days of observations from a roof-top site in the central built-up part of Vancouver, the diurnal variation of sensible ...

Measuring sensible heat flux with high spatial density [PDF]
Sensible heat flux is an essential quantity in the surface energy budget. Information about it is crucial for the derivation of models of air-surface interaction which in turn are needed for larger scale climate models. Sensible heat flux varies greatly across short distances and thus many sensors are required in order to obtain measurements of ...
