Estimation of surface energy fluxes under complex terrain of Mt. Qomolangma over the Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Surface solar radiation is an important parameter in surface energy balance models and in estimation of evapotranspiration. This study developed a DEM based radiation model to estimate instantaneous clear sky solar radiation for surface energy balance ...

The Wildland Fire Heat Budget—Using Bi-Directional Probes to Measure Sensible Heat Flux and Energy in Surface Fires [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 Sensible energy is the primary mode of heat dissipation from combustion in wildland surface fires. However, despite its importance to fire dynamics, smoke transport, and in determining ecological effects, it is not routinely measured.

Footprint issues in scintillometry over heterogeneous landscapes [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2009 Scintillometry is widely recognized as a potential tool for obtaining spatially aggregated sensible heat fluxes at regional scales. Although many investigations have been made over contrasting component surfaces, few aggregation schemes consider ...

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]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2022 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 ...

Leaf area controls on energy partitioning of a temperate mountain grassland [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2008 Using a six year data set of eddy covariance flux measurements of sensible and latent heat, soil heat flux, net radiation, above-ground phytomass and meteorological driving forces energy partitioning was investigated at a temperate mountain grassland ...

Sensible heat fluxes control cloud trail strength
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2023 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]
Water Resources Research, 1995 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 ...
