Leaf wetness within a lily canopy
A wetness duration experiment was carried out within a lily field situated adjacent to coastal dunes in the Netherlands. A within-canopy model was applied to simulate leaf wetness in three layers, with equal leaf area indices, within the canopy. This simulation model is an extension of an existing model. It appeared that in most cases leaf wetness started in the uppermost layer followed by the ...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of leaf wetness duration within a potato canopy
A description and analysis is given of a wetness duration experiment, carried out in a potato field in the centre of the Netherlands in September 2005. The observations are used to design and evaluate a within-canopy dew model which provides the leaf wetness distribution within the canopy caused by dew processes and by precipitation. This withincanopy dew model consists of three layers (bottom,...
متن کاملSimulations of tropical rainforest albedo: is canopy wetness important?
Accurate information on surface albedo is essential for climate modelling, especially for regions such as Amazonia, where the response of the regional atmospheric circulation to the changes on surface albedo is strong. Previous studies have indicated that models are still unable to correctly reproduce details of the seasonal variation of surface albedo. Therefore, it was investigated the role o...
متن کاملTemporal variations in the understorey photosynthetic photon flux density of a deciduous stand: the effects of canopy development, solar elevation, and sky conditions
The effects of canopy development, solar elevation, and sky conditions on temporal variation in photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) were examined within a 9-year-old bigleaf maple stand on Vancouver Island (Canada). PPFD was measured every second and stored as 10-min averages from 18 May to 14 October 1996, at 52 microsites characterised according to their growing season %PPFD (GSP). PPFD...
متن کاملThe canopy surface and stand development: assessing forest canopy structure and complexity with near-surface altimetry
A first-return laser rangefinder deployed from a low-flying helicopter provided inexpensive, repeatable, and high-resolution measurements of the shape of the outer forest canopy in stands of four successional stages on the Maryland coastal plain. The traces of canopy height in these stands revealed structural characteristics such as cover, maximum and mean heights which were consistent with cor...
