Estimation of the Latent Heat Flux over Irrigated Short Fescue Grass for Different Fetches

Often in agrometeorology the instrumentation required to estimate turbulent surface fluxes must be installed at sites where fetch is not sufficient for a sector of wind directions. For different integrated flux-footprints (IFFP) thresholds and taking as a reference the half-hourly latent heat fluxes...

For different integrated flux-footprints (IFFP) thresholds and taking as a reference the half-hourly latent heat fluxes (LE) measured with a large weighing lysimeter (LELys), the eddy covariance (EC) method and two methods based on surface renewal (SR) analysis to estimate LE were tested over short fescue grass. One method combined SR with the flux-gradient (profile) relationship, SR-P method, and the other with the dissipation method, SR-D method. When LE was estimated using traces of air moisture, good performances were obtained using the EC and the SR-P methods for samples with IFFP higher than 85%. However, the closest LE estimates were obtained using the residual method. For IFFP higher than 50%, the residual method combined with the sensible heat flux estimates determined using the SR-P method performed close to LELys and using the SR-D method good estimates were obtained for accumulated LELys. To estimate the sensible heat flux, the SR-D method can be recommended for day-to-day use by farmers because it is friendly and affordable.This research was funded by the National Research Institute of Agriculture and Food Technology (INIA) under the Project RTA2008-00006-CO2-01 and RTI2018-098693-B-C31Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad of Spain.MDPI2021info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://doi.org/10.3390/atmos12030322http://hdl.handle.net/10459.1/70918reponame:Repositori Obert UdL instname:Universitat de Lleida (UdL)Inglésinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/MICINN//RTA2008-00006-C02-01info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/AEI/Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación 2017-2020/RTI2018-098693-B-C31info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/MICINN//RTA2008-00006-C02-02Reproducció del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.3390/atmos12030322Atmosphere, 2021, vol. 12, núm. 3, p. 322cc-by (c) Castellví Sentís et al., 2021info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/oai:repositori.udl.cat:10459.1/709182026-06-24T12:42:17Z
