A Comparison between Line-Averaged Observation of Cn2 from Scintillation of a CO2 Laser Beam and Time-Averaged in situ Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The refractive-index structure parameter Cn2 was measured from scintillation of a CO2 laser beam over a 5.9 km path at 40 m height and compared to in situ observations of Cn2 at the optical receiver location. A reasonable ...
Water Vapor Cross-Sensitivity of Open Path H2O/CO2 Sensors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: When measuring the flux of CO2 with an open-path infrared absorption sensor, cross-sensitivity by water vapor is a source of concern. This is particularly true if the flux is small, such as over the sea. In this paper some ...
A Rapid-Circulation Evaporation Chamber for Measuring Bulk Stomatal Resistance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A relatively simple method is described for determining evaporation of short vegetation at any moment of time. The method is based on the measurement of bulk stomatal resistance of the crop with an evaporation chamber. ...
Evaporation Over A Heterogeneous Land Surface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The representation of subgrid-scale surface heterogeneities in numerical weather and climate models has been a challenging problem for more than a decade. The Evaporation at Grid and Pixel Scale (EVA-GRIPS) project adds ...
