Spatially Distributed Sensible Heat Flux over a Semiarid Watershed. Part II: Use of a Variable Resistance Approach with Radiometric Surface Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiometric surface temperature images from aircraft observations over the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed, a semiarid rangeland watershed, were used with ground-based meteorological data at a reference site for ...
Estimation of Surface Heat Fluxes at Field Scale Using Surface Layer Versus Mixed-Layer Atmospheric Variables with Radiometric Temperature Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiometric surface temperature observations TR(?), near-surface meteorological/surface energy flux (METFLUX), and atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) data were collected during the Washita ?94 Experiment conducted in the ...
Seasonal and Synoptic Variations in Near-Surface Air Temperature Lapse Rates in a Mountainous Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To accurately estimate near-surface (2 m) air temperatures in a mountainous region for hydrologic prediction models and other investigations of environmental processes, the authors evaluated daily and seasonal variations ...
Mesoscale Monitoring of Soil Moisture across a Statewide Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Soil moisture is an important component in many hydrologic and land?atmosphere interactions. Understanding the spatial and temporal nature of soil moisture on the mesoscale is vital to determine the influence that land ...
