Exchange Processes Between the Earth‘s Surface and the Atmosphere Energy budget Boundary layers Observations
Climatic system: Open components Coupling between individual components Boundary layers (fluxes of matter, energy and momentum) Energy Budget at the Surface Fradsfs = FSWs (1-A sfs)-T4+ FLW Fradsfs is the net radiative flux, FSWs is the short-wave radiation A sfs is the albedo • is the infrared emissivity, FLW is the lnog-wave radiation (back radiation)
From the conservation of energy for ideal surface it follows: Fradsfs - FSH -FLH -FG -FM =0 FSH =is the sensible heat flux (differences in temperatures of the surface and the air) FLH =LeE is the latent heat flux (mostly evaporation) FG is the sensible heat flux to or from the soil/water (mainly due to heat conduction) FM = LM(Ms-Fs), melting (Ms) and freezing (Fs) rates For annual mean conditions: FG =0 and we have for land Fradsfs - FSH -LeE-LM(Ms-Fs)=0
Energy budget of a layer This is valid if there are no sources or sinks of energy within the slab, c-specific heat This is valid if and c are constant Variations of temperature can be used to estimate the heat fluxes into the ground
