Sensible Heat Flux Measurements Near A Cold Surface [PDF]
Abstract : A unidirectional sonic anemometer with a fine wire thermocouple in conjunction with a hot film anemometer were employed to measure the turbulent fluctuating velocities of w', u' and the fluctuating temperature T'. Covariances were evaluated to compute the turbulent heat flux and the friction velocity.

Ozone exchange within and above an irrigated Californian orchard [PDF]
In this study, the canopy effects on the vertical ozone exchange within and above Californian orchard are investigated. We examined the comprehensive dataset obtained from the Canopy Horizontal Array Turbulence Study (CHATS).

Micrometeorology and heat balance over the fast ice
Micrometeorological conditions were observed over fast ice with overlying thick snow cover and underlying deep sea approximately in the center of Ongul Strait in Lutzow-Holm Bay, Antarctica, from the end of March to the beginning of December in 1990.

As the main components of the atmospheric heat source/sink over the Tibetan Plateau (TP), up-to-date spatiotemporal fields of surface sensible heat flux and latent heat release by precipitation are vital for investigating the local land–atmosphere ...

Consistency between hydrological model, large aperture scintillometer and remote sensing based evapotranspiration estimates for a heterogeneous catchment [PDF]
The catchment averaged actual evapotranspiration rate is a hydrologic model variable that is difficult to quantify. Evapotranspiration rates - up till present - cannot be continuously observed at the catchment scale.

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.

A daily-scale flux variance (FV) method, which employs low-frequency air temperature measurements, was assessed against eddy covariance (EC) measurements of sensible and latent heat fluxes at four sites representing grassland and cropland ecosystems. The

Atmospheric models used for weather prediction and future climate projections rely on land models to calculate surface boundary conditions. Observations of near‐surface states and fluxes made at flux measurement sites provide valuable data with which to ...

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of circulation regimes in optically-thin, dry atmospheres [PDF]
An extensive analysis of an optically-thin, dry atmosphere at different values of the thermal Rossby number Ro and of the Taylor number Ff is per- formed with a general circulation model by varying the rotation rate {\Omega} and the surface drag {\tau ...

Surface renewal method for estimating sensible heat flux
For short canopies, latent energy flux may be estimated using a shortened surface energy balance from measurements of sensible and soil heat flux and the net irradiance at the surface. The surface renewal (SR) method for estimating sensible heat, latent energy, and other scalar fluxes has the advantage over other micrometeorological methods since the ...
