Impact of Using Different Time-Averaged Inputs for Estimating Sensible Heat Flux of Riparian Vegetation Using Radiometric Surface Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A riparian corridor along the Rio Grande dominated by the Eurasian tamarisk or salt cedar (Tamarix spp.) is being studied to determine water and energy exchange rates using eddy covariance instrumentation mounted on a 12-m ...
Coherence between the Great Salt Lake Level and the Pacific Quasi-Decadal Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The lake level elevation of the Great Salt Lake (GSL), a large closed basin lake in the arid western United States, is characterized by a pronounced quasi-decadal oscillation (QDO). The variation of the GSL elevation is ...
Long-Term Winter Inversion Properties in a Mountain Valley of the Western United States and Implications on Air Quality
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecause of the geography of a narrow valley and surrounding tall mountains, Cache Valley (located in northern Utah and southern Idaho) experiences frequent shallow temperature inversions that are both intense and persistent. ...
Comparing Aircraft-Based Remotely Sensed Energy Balance Fluxes with Eddy Covariance Tower Data Using Heat Flux Source Area Functions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In an effort to better evaluate distributed airborne remotely sensed sensible and latent heat flux estimates, two heat flux source area (footprint) models were applied to the imagery, and their pixel weighting/integrating ...
Intercomparison of Nine Micrometeorological Stations during the BEAREX08 Field Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: and?atmosphere interactions play a critical role in regulating numerous meteorological, hydrological, and environmental processes. Investigating these processes often requires multiple measurement sites representing a range ...
Scintillometer-Based Estimates of Sensible Heat Flux Using Lidar-Derived Surface Roughness
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he estimation of sensible heat flux, H, using large aperture scintillometer (LAS) under varying surface heterogeneity conditions was investigated. Surface roughness features characterized by variable topography and vegetation ...
Stone Content Influence on Land Surface Model Simulation of Soil Moisture and Evapotranspiration at Reynolds Creek Watershed
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Grape Remote Sensing Atmospheric Profile and Evapotranspiration Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractParticularly in light of California?s recent multiyear drought, there is a critical need for accurate and timely evapotranspiration (ET) and crop stress information to ensure long-term sustainability of high-value ...
