Title: A study of surface sensible heat fluxes with Large Aperture Scintillometers
Abstract: Large Aperture Scintillometers (LAS), Bowen ratio and eddy covariance measurements were employed to study sensible heat flux over homogeneous bare soil surface from March 20/sup th/ to April 20/sup th/, 2002, at XiaoTangshan area, Beijing. The diurnal variation of sensible heat flux from LAS is analyzed in this paper, and the relation between sensible heat flux and weather conditions is discussed. Further, test comparisons of the scintillometer flux measurements with the measurements of Bowen ratio and eddy correlation methods show good agreement; The correlation coefficients are over 0.8.
