Surface Energy Balance of Fresh and Saline Waters: AquaSEBS [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2016
Current earth observation models do not take into account the influence of water salinity on the evaporation rate, even though the salinity influences the evaporation rate by affecting the density and latent heat of vaporization.

The mark of vegetation change on Earth’s surface energy balance [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2018
Depending on where and when it occurs, vegetation cover change can affect local climate by altering the surface energy balance. Based on satellite data, this study provides the first data-driven assessment of such effects for multiple vegetation ...

Incorporating the effect of heterogeneous surface heating into a semi-empirical model of the surface energy balance closure. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2022
It was discovered several decades ago that eddy covariance measurements systematically underestimate sensible and latent heat fluxes, creating an imbalance in the surface energy budget.

Variability of the surface energy balance in permafrost-underlain boreal forest [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2021
Boreal forests in permafrost regions make up around one-third of the global forest cover and are an essential component of regional and global climate patterns.

Characterization of the Surface Energy Balance Residual in Complex Terrain. [PDF]

Boundary Layer Meteorol
Abstract The closure of the surface energy balance (SEB) in complex terrain remains a persistent challenge. We present a multi-site analysis based on the i-Box network in the Inn Valley, Austria, to characterize the SEB residual ( Res ) normalized by net radiation (

Comparison of Latent Heat Flux Using Aerodynamic Methods and Using the Penman–Monteith Method with Satellite-Based Surface Energy Balance

Remote Sensing, 2014
A surface energy balance was conducted to calculate the latent heat flux (λE) using aerodynamic methods and the Penman–Monteith (PM) method. Computations were based on gridded weather and Landsat satellite reflected and thermal data.

Surface energy balance fluxes in a suburban area of Beijing: energy partitioning variability [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023
Measurements of radiative and turbulent heat fluxes for 16 months in suburban Miyun with a mix of buildings and agriculture allows the changing role of these fluxes to be assessed.

Application of an improved surface energy balance model to two large valley glaciers in the St. Elias Mountains, Yukon

Journal of Glaciology, 2021
Glacier surficial melt rates are commonly modelled using surface energy balance (SEB) models, with outputs applied to extend point-based mass-balance measurements to regional scales, assess water resource availability, examine supraglacial hydrology and ...

Assessing the Performance of the South American Land Data Assimilation System Version 2 (SALDAS-2) Energy Balance across Diverse Biomes

Atmosphere, 2023
Understanding the exchange of energy between the surface and the atmosphere is important in view of the climate scenario. However, it becomes a challenging task due to a sparse network of observations.

Processes governing the mass balance of Chhota Shigri Glacier (western Himalaya, India) assessed by point-scale surface energy balance measurements [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2014
Some recent studies revealed that Himalayan glaciers were shrinking at an accelerated rate since the beginning of the 21st century. However, the climatic causes for this shrinkage remain unclear given that surface energy balance studies are almost ...
