Triton's surface-atmosphere energy balance
Icarus, 1992A model encompassing the turbulent transfer of sensible heat as well as insolation, reradiation, and latent heat transport is presently used to investigate the energetics of the surface-atmosphere system of Triton. Under the assumption of a physically plausible range of heat transfer coefficients, the atmospheric temperature 1 km above the surface is ...

Tropical Deforestation: Albedo and the Surface-Energy Balance
Climatic Change, 1991Recent micrometeorological measurements for Amazonian rainforest are reviewed, emphasising those aspects of the radiation and heat balance which are likely to change with deforestation. The possible consequences of such deforestation are considered by examining the sensitivity of the surface energy balance to changes in those parameters which would be ...

Analysis of surface energy balance closure over heterogeneous surfaces
Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences, 2014Surface energy balance closure has been examined using eddy covariance measurements and other observations at one industrial and three agricultural sites near the Nakdong River during daytime. Energy balance closure was evaluated by calculating the long-term averaged energy balance ratio (EBR), the ratio of turbulent energy fluxes to available energy ...

Effect of temperature on surface energy balance
Water Resources Research, 2001The conventional energy balance equation at land surface representing the repartition of net radiation into latent, sensible, and ground heat fluxes was revised to acknowledge the fact that sensible heat flux is always measured at a certain height level within the atmosphere even though the other components are well defined at the surface. A correction

Study on energy balance over different surfaces
IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2004Eddy covariance and Bowen ratio measurements were carried out over different surfaces, and used to characterize the daily variation of energy fluxes and energy balance under different weather condition. These will be used to identify the phenomena to be addressed in future modeling works.

Surface energy balance at a tropical station
pure and applied geophysics, 1970Studies of various fluxes, namely net radiation, soil heat, sensible heat and latent heat observed at a tropical station are presented in this paper. The time variation of these fluxes are examined in relation to various meteorological parameters and atmospheric conditions.

The surface energy balance in Mexico City
Atmospheric Environment. Part B. Urban Atmosphere, 1992Abstract Results of a field observation programme to investigate the surface energy balance of Mexico City, D.F., are presented. Direct measurements of net all-wave radiation and the turbulent sensible heat flux were conducted from a 28 m tower located about 4 km from the city centre.

Geostationary satellite parameters for surface energy balance
Advances in Space Research, 2002Abstract Since January 1996, surface climate parameters for the continental US have been produced in real time at NOAA/NESDIS from GOES-8 observations, and have been made available to the NOAA/NWS National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), to the GEWEX Continental-Scale International Project (GCIP) community, as well as to the public.

Measuring surface energy of solid surfaces using centrifugal adhesion balance
Physical Review EThe standard way to evaluate the solid surface energy using probe liquids relies on contact angle measurements. The measured contact angles rely on visible means and are different from their nanoscopic thermodynamic values. This compromises the surface-energy predictions so much that the surface energy-values can be hundreds of percentages higher than ...
