What does Rn stand for?
It's related to radiation balance.
What does albedo influence?
Think about how light interacts with different surfaces.
What does net radiation (Rn) measure in the context of evapotranspiration?
Think about what both components measure together.
True or False: Albedo is a measure of how much energy is reflected off a surface.
Reflectivity is key to understanding energy dynamics.
A lake has an Rn value of 10 MJ/m2/day during a summer day, while a snow-covered field has an Rn of 3 MJ/m2/day. Discuss the factors leading to this difference.
Think about the properties of water versus snow.
Calculate the Net Radiation if Rs is 20 MJ/m2/day and α is 0.2, with Rnl at 4 MJ/m2/day.
Apply the formula step-by-step.
