Prediction of windthrow risk to individual or groups of retained trees in harvested stands requires an improved understanding of canopy airflow dynamics. Large-eddy simulations were used to simulate wind-tunnel experiments in two and three dimensions to compare with observations for model validation and to address parameter space considerations for the design of subsequent retention pattern experiments. The three-dimensional simulations were similar to the observed wind-tunnel data for the statistical profiles for but there were greater differences in skewness and kurtosis. These results were obtained using a common leaf-area drag formulation without either skin friction or speed dependent drag that enables scaling with U 0 (ambient wind speed) and h (height of the canopy). This scaling results in a single non-dimensional parameter h/h c where h c (x, y, z) is the momentum range resulting from the canopy drag. The validity of the model scaling was tested using two-dimensional simulations. The irrotational component of the flow (potential flow) was found to be important when defining vertical domain limitations and has significant implications for time dependent flow (i.e. turbulent conditions) when considering retention pattern design. The sudden onset of drag associated with the isolated stand presents some unexpected challenges. The horizontal scales of the shearing instabilities were simulated in two dimensions and found to range between 2h for early times to 7h for later times. The early-time horizontal scales are in the range of logical retention pattern scales and as such need to be taken into account as part of the parameter space, i.e. a range of retention pattern lengths need consideration.  相似文献

We used wind-tunnel experiments to investigate velocity-field adjustment and scalar diffusion behaviour in and above urban canopies located downwind of various roughness elements. Staggered arrays of rectangular blocks of various heights H and plan area ratios λp were used to model the urban canopies. The velocity field in the roughness sublayer (height \({z \lesssim 2H}\)) reached equilibrium at distances proportional to \({\sqrt{L_{\rm c}H}}\) where L c is the canopy-drag length scale determined as a function of λp and the block side length L. A distance of about \({20\sqrt{L_{\rm c}H}}\) was required for adjustment at z = H/2 (in the canopy), and a distance of about \({10\sqrt{L_{\rm c}H}}\) was required at z = 2H (near the top of the roughness sublayer). Diffusion experiments from a ground emission source revealed that differences in upwind roughness conditions had negligible effects on the plume growth near the source (up to a few multiples of L from the source) if the source was located at a fetch F larger than about \({10\sqrt{L_{\rm c}H}}\) from the upwind edge of the canopy. However, at locations farther downwind (more than several multiples of L from the source), upwind conditions had considerable effects on the plume growth. For a representative urban canopy, it was shown that a much larger fetch than required for velocity-field adjustment in the roughness sublayer was necessary to eliminate the effects of upwind conditions on plume widths at 24L downwind from the source.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Canopy resistance substantially affects the partitioning of available energy over vegetated surfaces. This study analyzed the variability of canopy resistance and associated driving environmental factors over a desert steppe site in Inner Mongolia, China, through the use of eddy-flux and meteorological data collected from 2008 to 2010. Distinct seasonal and interannual variabilities in canopy resistance were identified within those three years, and these variabilities were controlled primarily by precipitation. Strong interannual variability was found in vapor pressure deficit （VPD）, similar to that of air temperature. Based on the principal component regression method, the analysis of the relative contribution of five major environmental factors [soil-water content （SWC）, leaf-area index （LAI）, photosynthetically active radiation （Kp）, VPD, and air temperature] to canopy resistance showed that the canopy-resistance variation was most responsive to SWC （with 〉 35% contribution）, followed by LAI, especially for water-stressed soil conditions （〉 20% influence）, and VPD （consistently with an influence of approximately 20%）. Canopy-resistance variations did not respond to Kp due to the small interannual variability in Kp during the three years. These analyses were used to develop a new exponential function of water stress for the widely used Jarvis scheme, which substantially improved the calculation of canopy resistance and latent heat fluxes, especially for moist and wet soils, and effectively reduced the high bias in evaporation estimated by the original Jarvis scheme. This study highlighted the important control of canopy resistance on plant evaporation and growth for the investigated desert steppe site with a relatively low LA1.  相似文献

Data on instantaneous atmospheric Linke turbidity factor TL (m) are reported for clear days at Qena/Egypt in the period from June 1992 to May 1993.TL(m) is determined using the values of irradiance of direct solar radiation (I),which are calculated from global (G) and diffuse (D) - solar radiation measurements.Monthly and seasonally variations of both diurnal and daily average values of TL (m) increases steadily in the direction of sunset in the months from June to December 1992 as well as Summer and Autumn seasons,while it falls generally in this direction for the months from January to March and Winter season.In April and May,TL (m) fluctuates obviously through the day hours,it is also shown that the average values of TL(m) are particularly large during Summer months compared to other months of the year.This behavior of TL(m) is discussed in view of the variations of some weather elements,which affect the content of water vapor and dust particle in the atmosphere of the study region.It seems t be of s  相似文献

It is shown that predictions of a numerical trajectory-simulation method agree closely with the Project Prairie Grass observations of the concentrations 100 m downwind of a continuous point source of sulphur dioxide if the height (z) dependence of the Lagrangian length scale Λ L is chosen as: whereL is the Monin-Obukhov length. The value of 0.5 for Λ L /z in neutral conditions is consistent with the findings of Reid (1979) for the Porton experiment, and is also shown to be the best choice for simulation of an experiment in which concentration profiles were measured a short distance (< 40 m) downwind of an elevated point source of glass beads (40 μn diameter). $$\begin{gathered} \Lambda _L = 0.5z\left( {1 - 6\frac{z}{L}} \right)^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 4}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 4}} L< 0 \hfill \\ \Lambda _L = 0.5z/\left( {1 + 5\frac{z}{L}} \right)L > 0 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$   相似文献

An attempt is made to construct a model, coupling land surface and atmospheric processes in the planetary boundary layer (PBL). A grassland strip in a semi-desert (hereinafter called desert) is presupposed, so as to simulate the case of heterogeneous vegetation cover.Modeling results indicate that every term in the equation of the surface energy balance changes as the air flows over the grassland. The striking contrast of water and energy conditions between the grassland and the desert means that the air over the grassland is cooler and wetter than that over the desert. Consequently, in the heating and dynamic forcing of the air by the underlying surface, heterogeneities arise and are then transferred upward by the turbulent motions. Horizontal differences thus develop in the PBL, resulting in a local circulation. Meanwhile, the horizontal differences affect the free atmosphere through vertical motion at the top of the PBL.List of symbols d 1,d 2,d 3 depths of surface, middle and lower layers of soil - T c ,T 1,T 2,T 3 temperatures of canopy, surface, middle and lower layers of soil - R nc net radiation of canopy layer - c shielding factor of vegetation - Ew, Etc evaporation from wet fraction of foliage and transpiration from dry fraction of foliage - Et 1,Et 2 transpiration of foliage water absorbed by the root in the upper and lower soil, respectively - H c sensible heat of canopy - P c ,D c precipitation rate and drainage of canopy - C s ,C c ,C w heat capacity of soil, canopy and water - w , s density of water and air near the surface - D hydraulic permeability of soil - s saturated value of the ratio of volumetric soil moisture - S g , g solar radiation and surface reflection - H g ,R L g turbulent heat flux and long wave radiation of surface - P g ,E g precipitation rate and evaporation of soil surface - K s soil thermal diffusivity - K (m),K (H),K (q) eddy coefficients of momentum, heat and moisture - u, v, w components of wind speed in three directions - air potential temperature - e turbulent kinetic energy - p atmospheric pressure - C p specific heat of air under constant pressure - R d gas constant - u * friction velocity - * feature temperature - h height of the PBL - f Coriolis parameter - L 0 Monin-Obukhov length - latent heat of vaporization - q specific humidity - M c ,M cm interception water storage of canopy and its maximum - 0 Exner number of largescale background field - perturbation Exner number - u g ,v g components of the geostrophic wind speed Sponsored by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.  相似文献

In this study, weighing lysimeters were used to investigate the daily crop coefficient and evapotranspiration of wheat and maize in the Fars province, Iran. The locally calibrated Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Penman–Monteith equation was used to calculate the reference crop evapotranspiration (ETo). Micro-lysimetry was used to measure soil evaporation (E). Transpiration (T) was estimated by the difference between crop evapotranspiration (ETc) and E. The single crop coefficient (K c) was calculated by the ratio of ETc to ETo. Furthermore, the dual crop coefficient is composed of the soil evaporation coefficient (K e) and the basal crop coefficients (K cb) calculated from the ratio of E and T to ETo, respectively. The maximum measured evapotranspiration rate for wheat was 9.9 mm?day?1 and for maize was 10 mm?day?1. The total evaporation from the soil surface was about 30 % of the total wheat ETc and 29.8 % of total maize ETc. The single crop coefficient (K c) values for the initial, mid-, and end-season growth stages of maize were 0.48, 1.40, and 0.31 and those of wheat were 0.77, 1.35, and 0.26, respectively. The measured K c values for the initial and mid-season stages were different from the FAO recommended values. Therefore, the FAO standard equation for K c-mid was calibrated locally for wheat and maize. The K cb values for the initial, mid-, and end-season growth stages were 0.23, 1.14, and 0.13 for wheat and 0.10, 1.07, and 0.06 for maize, respectively. Furthermore, the FAO procedure for single crop coefficient showed better predictions on a daily basis, although the dual crop coefficient method was more accurate on seasonal scale.  相似文献

The relationship between the geometrical structure of a canopy layer and the bulk transfer coefficient was investigated using a numerical canopy model. The following results were obtained:
  1. The bulk transfer coefficients for momentum and heat, C M and C H , change with non-dimensional canopy density C * each has a maximum.
  2. The value of C M is always larger than the value of C H for a canopy with c m > c h , c m and c h being the drag coefficient and the heat transfer coefficient of an individual canopy element, respectively.
  3. The value of C * at which C H has its maximum value is larger than the value of C * at which C M has its maximum. Therefore, the reciprocal of the sublayer Stanton number b h ?1 ranges between 50 and 65 for C * around 0.1 while it ranges between 0 and 30 for C * < 10?2 and C * > 2 (when c m = 0.5).
  4. The value of B H ?1 in the present study is consistent with most available observations, except for canopies of medium density (when C * is around 0.1) for which no observational value has been obtained.

An experiment is reported in which heat was released as a passive tracer from an elevated lateral line source within a model plant canopy, with h s = 0.85 h c (h s and h c being the source and canopy heights, respectively).

Conclusions were:
  1. Despite the very heterogeneous flow within the canopy, the observed dispersive heat flux (due to spatial correlation between time-averaged temperature and vertical velocity) was small. However, there is evidence from the plume centroid (which was lower than h s at the source) of systematic recirculating motions within the canopy.

  3. The eddy diffusivity for heat from the line source (K HL ) increased, downstream of the source, to a nearly constant ‘far-field’ vertical profile. Within the canopy, the far-field K HL was an order of magnitude larger than K HP , the equivalent diffusivity for a plane source; well above the canopy, the two were equal. The time scale defined by (far-field K HL )/(vertical velocity variance) was independent of height within the canopy.
  4. Budgets for temperature variance, vertical heat flux and streamwise heat flux are remarkably similar to the equivalent budgets for an elevated line source in the surface layer well above the canopy, except in the lower part of the canopy in the far field, where vertical transport is much more important than in the surface layer.
  5. A random flight simulation of the mean height and depth of the temperature plume was generally in good agreement with experiment. However, details of the temperature and streamwise turbulent heat flux profiles were not correct, suggesting that the model formulation needs to be improved.

The study investigates the reliable computation time (RCT, termed as T c) by applying a double-precision computation of a variable parameters logistic map (VPLM). Firstly, by using the proposed method, we obtain the reliable solutions for the logistic map. Secondly, we construct 10,000 samples of reliable experiments from a time-dependent non-stationary parameters VPLM and then calculate the mean T c. The results indicate that, for each different initial value, the T cs of the VPLM are generally different. However, the mean T c trends to a constant value when the sample number is large enough. The maximum, minimum, and probable distribution functions of T c are also obtained, which can help us to identify the robustness of applying a nonlinear time series theory to forecasting by using the VPLM output. In addition, the T c of the fixed parameter experiments of the logistic map is obtained, and the results suggest that this T c matches the theoretical formula-predicted value.  相似文献

A field experiment was conducted in a maize field in 2006 in an arid area of the Yellow River Basin in China. The daytime evapotranspiration (ETc) and soil evaporation beneath the maize canopy (E g) were measured by Bowen ratio energy balance method and micro-lysimeters, respectively. The results showed that the total ETc during maize growth season was 696 mm, and the maximum values occurred at about 90–140 days after sowing. The crop coefficient (K c), which was calculated from the ratio of ETc to reference evapotranspiration (ET0), was quite different from the values reported by other researchers in similar climate areas, with average values of 0.34, 0.47, 1.0 and 0.9 for initial, development, mid-season and late-season stages, respectively. High correlations between leaf area index (LAI) and average K c for every 4 days were obtained. The total E g was 201.4 mm with average values ranged from 0.92 to 2.05 for four growth stages of maize; and accounted for around 28.9 % of ETc. The ratio E g/ETc showed high negative relationship with LAI. These results were very important in precise management of irrigation for maize in Yellow River Basin areas.  相似文献

By using an ageostrophic shallow water model, it is pointed out that a kind of lateral boundary meso-scales jet can be established near the plateau or coast. The characteristic width of this kind of jet is proportional to the scale ofL c=L0(C0/Vg), whereL 0=C 0/f is the radius of Rossby deformation,C 0=(g * H)1/2 the speed of gravity wave and g* the reduced gravity. In general,L c is of the order of one hundred kilometes and tens of kilometers in the atmosphere and in the ocean respectively. The large-scale geostrophic current is an important background condition for forming this kind of jet. From this view point it seems that this kind of atmospheric meso-scale jet only occurs in late spring and summer in the eastern part of Asia, because there is a large-scale south monsoon over there. For the ocean, this kind of meso-scale jet seems to be a semi-persistant system and not to show a significant seasonal variation, and it can be established on both sides of the ocean.  相似文献

Near-surface wind profiles in the nocturnal boundary layer, depth h, above relatively flat, tree-covered terrain are described in the context of the analysis of Garratt (1980) for the unstable atmospheric boundary layer. The observations at two sites imply a surface-based transition layer, of depth z *, within which the observed non-dimensional profiles Φ M 0 are a modified form of the inertial sub-layer relation \(\Phi _M \left( {{z \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {z L}} \right. \kern-0em} L}} \right) = \left( {{{1 + 5_Z } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{1 + 5_Z } L}} \right. \kern-0em} L}} \right)\) according to $$\Phi _M^{\text{0}} \simeq \left( {{{1 + 5z} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{1 + 5z} L}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} L}} \right)\exp \left[ { - 0.7\left( {{{1 - z} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{1 - z} z}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} z}_ * } \right)} \right]$$ , where z is height above the zero-plane displacement and L is the Monin-Obukhov length. At both sites the depth z * is significantly smaller than the appropriate neutral value (z *N ) found from the previous analysis, as might be expected in the presence of a buoyant sink for turbulent kinetic energy.  相似文献

Trees form a significant part of the urban vegetation. Their meteorological and climatological effects at all scales in urban environments make them a flexible tool for creating a landscape oriented to the needs of an urban dweller. This study aims at quantifying the spatio-temporal patterns of canopy temperature (T C) and canopy-to-air temperature difference (?T C) in relation to meteorological conditions and tree-specific (physiological) and urban site-specific characteristics. We observed T C and ?T C of 67 urban trees (18 species) using a high-resolution thermal-infrared (TIR) camera and meteorological measurements in the city of Berlin, Germany. TIR images were recorded at 1-min intervals over a period of 2?months from 1st July to 31st August 2010. The results showed that ?T C depends on tree species, leaf size and fraction of impervious surfaces. Average canopy temperature was nearly equal to air temperature. Species-specific maximum ?T C varied between 1.9?±?0.3?K (Populus nigra), 2.9?±?0.3?K (Quercus robur), 3.2?±?0.5?K (Fagus sylvatica), 3.9?±?1.0?K (Platanus acerifolia), 4.6?±?0.2?K (Acer pseudoplatanus), 5.0?±?0.5?K (A. platanoides) and 5.6?±?1.1?K (A. campestre). We analysed ?T C for a hot and dry period (A) and a warm and wet period (B). The range of species-specific ?T C at noon was nearly equal, i.e. 4.4?K for period A and 4.2?K for period B. Trees surrounded by high fraction of impervious surfaces showed consistently higher ?T C. Knowledge of species-specific canopy temperature and the impacts of urban structures are essential in order to optimise the benefits from trees in cities. However, comprehensive evaluation and optimisation should take the full range of climatological effects into account.  相似文献

Numerical simulations of flow over hills that are partially covered with a forest canopy are performed. This represents a much more realistic situation than previous studies that have generally concentrated on hills that are fully-forested. The results show that the flow over the hill is sensitive to where on the hill the forest is positioned. In particular, for low slopes flow separation is predominantly located within the forest on the lee slope. This has implications for the transport of scalars in the forest canopy. For large hills the results show more variability in scalar concentrations within the canopy compared to either a fully-forested hill or a patch of forest over flat terrain. These results are likely to have implications for a range of applications including the siting and interpretation of flux measurements over forests in complex terrain, predicting wind damage to trees and wind-farm developments. Calculation of the hill-induced pressure drag and canopy-plus-surface stress shows a strong sensitivity to the position of the forest relative to the hill. Depending on the position of the forest the individual drag terms may be strongly enhanced or reduced and may even change sign. The net impact is generally to reduce the total drag compared to an equivalent fully-forested hill, but the amount of the reduction depends strongly on the position of the forest canopy on the hill. In many cases with large, wide hills there is a clear separation of scales between the adjustment of the canopy to a forest edge (of order 6 ? 8L c, where L c is the canopy adjustment length scale) and the width of the hill. This separation means that the hill-induced pressure and flow fields and the forest-edge induced pressure and flow fields can in some sense be considered as acting separately. This provides a means of explaining the combined effects of partial forestation and terrain. It also offers a simple method for modelling the changes in drag over a hill due to partial forest cover by considering the impact of the hill and the partial canopy separately. Scaling arguments based on this idea successfully collapse the modelled drag over a range of different hill widths and heights and for different canopy parameters. This offers scope for a relatively simple parametrization of the effects of partial forest cover on the drag over a hill.  相似文献

This paper describes a wind-tunnel experiment on the dispersion of trace heat from an effectively planar source within a model plant canopy, the source height being h s = 0.80 h c , where h c is the canopy height. A sensor assembly consisting of three coplanar hot wires and one cold wire was used to make simultaneous measurements of the temperature and the streamwise and vertical velocity components. It was found that:
  1. The thermal layer consisted of two parts with different length scales, an inner sublayer (scaling with h s and h c ) which quickly reached streamwise equilibrium downstream of the leading edge of the source, and an outer sublayer which was self-preserving with a length scale proportional to the depth of the thermal layer.
  2. Below 2h c , the vertical eddy diffusivity for heat from the plane source (K HP ) was substantially less than the far-field limit of the corresponding diffusivity for heat from a lateral line source at the same height as the plane source. This shows that dispersion from plane or other distributed sources in canopies is influenced, near the canopy, by turbulence ‘memory’ and must be considered as a superposition of both near-field and far-field processes. Hence, one-dimensional models for scalar transport from distributed sources in canopies are wrong in principle, irrespective of the order of closure.
  3. In the budgets for temperature variance, and for the vertical and streamwise components of the turbulent heat flux, turbulent transport was a major loss between h s and h c and a principal gain mechanism below h s , as also observed in the budgets for turbulent energy and shear stress.
  4. Quadrant analysis of the vertical heat flux showed that sweeps and ejections contributed about equal amounts to the heat flux between h s and h c , though among the more intense events, sweeps were dominant. Below h s , almost all the heat was transported by sweeps.

The thermal-infrared (longwave) emission from a vegetated terrain is generally anisotropic, i.e., the emission temperature varies with the view direction. If a directional measurement of temperature is considered to be equal to the effective temperature of the hemispheric emission, then the estimate of the latter can be significantly in error. The view-direction (zenith angle eq ) at which the emission equivalence does hold is determined in our modeling study. In a two-temperature field-of-view (soil and plants), eq falls in a narrow range depending on plant density and canopy architecture. eq does not depend on soil and (uniform) plant temperatures nor on their ratio, even though the pattern of emission vs. the view direction depends crucially on this ratio. For a sparse canopy represented as thin, vertical cylindrical stalks (or vertical blades uniformly distributed in azimuth) with horizontal facets, eq ranges from 48 to 53° depending on the optical density of the vertical elements alone. When plant elements are modeled as small spheres, eq lies between 53 to 57° (for the same values of the canopy optical density). Only for horizontal leaves (a truly planophile canopy) is the temperature measured from any direction equal to the temperature of the hemispheric emission. When the emission temperature changes with optical depth within the canopy at a specified rate, eq depends to some extent on that rate. For practically any sparsely vegetated surface, a directional measurement at the zenith angle of 50° offers an appropriate evaluation of the hemispheric emission, since the error in the estimate will, at most, only slightly exceed 1% (around 4 W m–2). Estimates of the hemispheric emission through a nadir measurement, on the other hand, can be in error in some cases by about 10%, i.e., on the order of 40 W m–2....by a small sample we may judge the whole piece...

Observations show that the surface diurnal temperature range (DTR) has decreased since 1950s over most global land areas due to a smaller warming in maximum temperatures (T max) than in minimum temperatures (T min). This paper analyzes the trends and variability in T max, T min, and DTR over land in observations and 48 simulations from 12 global coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation models for the later half of the 20th century. It uses the modeled changes in surface downward solar and longwave radiation to interpret the modeled temperature changes. When anthropogenic and natural forcings are included, the models generally reproduce observed major features of the warming of T max and T min and the reduction of DTR. As expected the greenhouse gases enhanced surface downward longwave radiation (DLW) explains most of the warming of T max and T min while decreased surface downward shortwave radiation (DSW) due to increasing aerosols and water vapor contributes most to the decreases in DTR in the models. When only natural forcings are used, none of the observed trends are simulated. The simulated DTR decreases are much smaller than the observed (mainly due to the small simulated T min trend) but still outside the range of natural internal variability estimated from the models. The much larger observed decrease in DTR suggests the possibility of additional regional effects of anthropogenic forcing that the models can not realistically simulate, likely connected to changes in cloud cover, precipitation, and soil moisture. The small magnitude of the simulated DTR trends may be attributed to the lack of an increasing trend in cloud cover and deficiencies in charactering aerosols and important surface and boundary-layer processes in the models.  相似文献
