2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the Bowen Ratio?
Think about the heat exchanged during evaporation.
Name one component of the energy balance equation.
Consider the energy inputs and outputs.
What does the Bowen Ratio represent?
Think of its definition related to heat and moisture.
The equation R_n - G - H = λE is used in which method?
Recall the components constituting the energy equation.
An area has a net radiation of 800 W/m², a sensible heat flux of 300 W/m², and a soil heat flux of 50 W/m². Calculate the latent heat flux and the Bowen Ratio.
Follow the order of operations in calculating the energy balance.
Discuss how an increase in soil heat flux might influence the Bowen Ratio and subsequent ET estimates in a dry climate.
Consider how each flux is interdependent in a dry setting.
