Download or read book Urban Climates written by T. R. Oke and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Climates is the first full synthesis of modern scientific and applied research on urban climates. The book begins with an outline of what constitutes an urban ecosystem. It develops a comprehensive terminology for the subject using scale and surface classification as key constructs. It explains the physical principles governing the creation of distinct urban climates, such as airflow around buildings, the heat island, precipitation modification and air pollution, and it then illustrates how this knowledge can be applied to moderate the undesirable consequences of urban development and help create more sustainable and resilient cities. With urban climate science now a fully-fledged field, this timely book fulfills the need to bring together the disparate parts of climate research on cities into a coherent framework. It is an ideal resource for students and researchers in fields such as climatology, urban hydrology, air quality, environmental engineering and urban design.

Download or read book Soil Temperature and Weather Conditions written by James E. Carson and published by . This book was released on 1961 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation was made of the energy exchange at the air-soil interface. The temperature regime in the soil and the thermal response of the soil to various meteorological parameters such as sunshine, air temperature, and wind speed were studied. A series of case studies, showing the temperature response of the soil in several typical weather situations were prepared and analyzed. A set of multiple regression equations was calculated to show quantitatively the temperature change in the soil as a result of a given change in the external meteorological conditions. The diumal and annual cycles of soil and air temperature, air-soil temperature difference, and heat flux in the soil were studied. In addition the annual cycle of daily range of soil temperature and the inter-diurnal temperature variability were analyzed. Data on frost in the soil are presented.

Download or read book Land Surface Energy Balance and Surface Soil Moisture Variation in HAPEX-MOBILHY written by William E. Nichols and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The HAPEX-MOBILHY regional experiment provided an significant opportunity to analyze the partition of energy and distribution of water over land surfaces. The combination of remotely sensed data and ground instrument networks over the large-scale in situ experiment allowed investigation of spatial and temporal variation of such hydrologic parameters as the latent heat flux and surface soil moisture. A literature review provided the fundamental physical theory for remote sensing detection of surface energy balance components and surface soil moisture. In instances where ground-based instruments were incorporated into the remote sensing approach, or were specifically of interest in the study, the appropriate theoretical background was also presented. The review identifies the approaches necessary for future attempts to model evaporative flux directly with combined remote-based and ground-based data collection systems. Sensors and equipment used in the HAPEX-MOBILHY Program to monitor land surface hydrologic processes are identified and described. Algorithms were developed for use in computer processing of data collected by a passive microwave sensor, the Push Broom Microwave Radiometer. The variation of the surface energy balance was examined through the use of the evaporative fraction, a ratio found to be relatively stable for daylight periods. The behavior of the evaporative fraction was examined with respect to location and meteorological conditions to determine its suitability for remote sensing applications. Surface soil moisture variation was examined for two intensely instrumented ground sites in the HAPEX-MOBILHY experiment grid using passive microwave remote sensing. The relationship between passive microwave measurements and ground truth data was examined to attempt to calibrate the remote sensor. Factors which resulted in a weak relationship were examined. The association between surface energy balance and soil moisture was examined using several soil moisture measurement techniques. This resulted in an understanding of the limitations of passive microwave remote sensing for use in measuring a state variable, moisture, as it pertains to evaporative flux estimation by remote-sensing techniques. Several suggestions for additional research priorities in this field were made with future large-scale in situ experiments in mind. Opportunities to combine these research efforts with ongoing or planned projects are noted.

Download or read book Structure and Function of an Alpine Ecosystem written by William D. Bowman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-04-26 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will provide a complete overview of an alpine ecosystem, based on the long-term research conducted at the Niwot Ridge LTER. There is, at present, no general book on alpine ecology. The alpine ecosystem features conditions near the limits of biological existence, and is a useful laboratory for asking more general ecological questions, because it offers large environmental change over relatively short distances. Factors such as macroclimate, microclimate, soil conditions, biota, and various biological factors change on differing scales, allowing insight into the relative contributions of the different factors on ecological outcomes.

Download or read book Coupled Dynamics in Soil written by Yijian Zeng and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In arid and semi-arid areas, the main contributions to land surface processes are precipitation, surface evaporation and surface energy balancing. In the close-to-surface layer and root-zone layer, vapor flux is the dominant flux controlling these processes - process which, in turn, influence the local climate pattern and the local ecosystem. The work reported in this thesis attempts to understand how the soil airflow affects the vapor transport during evaporation processes, by using a two-phase heat and mass transfer model. The necessity of including the airflow mechanism in land surface process studies is discussed and highlighted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents an overview of the direct measurement techniques of evapotranspiration with related applications to the water use optimization in the agricultural practice and to the ecosystems study. Different measuring techniques at leaf level (porometry), plant-level (sap-flow, lysimetry) and agro-ecosystem level (Surface Renewal, Eddy Covariance, Multi layer BREB), are presented with detailed explanations and examples. For the optimization of the water use in agriculture, detailed measurements on transpiration demands of crops and different cultivars, as well as results of different irrigation schemes and techniques (i.e. subsurface drip) in semi-arid areas for open-field, greenhouse and potted grown plants are presented. Aspects on ET of crops in saline environments, effects of ET on groundwater quality in xeric environments as well as the application of ET to climatic classification are also depicted. The book provides an excellent overview for both, researchers and student,s who intend to address these issues.

Download or read book Agrometeorology written by J. Seemann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agrometeorology is a comparatively young science. The beginnings of agrometeorological work came in the 20's of this century, when agrometeorology was a working branch of climatology. In the years following 1950 it then developed widely to an independent science. In this process, agrome teorology has not only gained a vast knowledge of the influence of meteorological conditions on plants and livestock in agriculture and damage prevention, but additionally evolved new advisory methods which are of great practical use in agriculture. Up to the present time there has been practically no specific training for an agrometeorologist. Agrometeoro logists are drawn, according to their training, from the ranks of general meteorology or from agriculture and its related biological disciplines. They must, therefore, them selves gather the knowledge for their agrometeorological work and combine for themselves the complex of agrome teorology from biological and meteorological information. This is usuaIIy far from easy, as the relevant literature is scattered among the most widely differing journals, partly in little-known foreign languages, and is thus very difficult of access. Comprehensive writings are to be found only in very few partial fields of agrometeorology. The subject of training problems has thus been treated as of utmost importance at the meetings ofthe Commission for Agrometeorology (CAgM) of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), especially as agrometeorology has won such great significance and useful ness not only in the so-called underdeveloped countries in advancing a more productive agriculture, but also in coun tries whose agricultural standard is already high.
