Application and comparison of winter wheat canopy resistance estimation models based on the scaling-up of leaf stomatal conductance

Abstract

Canopy resistance estimation model based on the scaling-up leaf stomatal resistance is the focus of evapotrantion research, as there is a need to select the proper scaling-up model for winter wheat in typical areas of North China. Two years of field experimental data are used for the Leuning-Ball and Jarvis stomatal model calibration and validation, canopy resistance estimation models are established based on Leuning-Ball and Jarvis stomatal models, their application effects are compared and verified. Results show that daily variation of stomatal resistance of winter wheat is higher than that of canopy resistance, and there exists scale differences between leaf and canopy scale; Leuning-Ball stomatal model can be better explicated by the response of stomatal conductance towards environmental factors; Leuning-Ball canopy resistance estimation models turn out to be an effective canopy resistance simulation, and thus can be applied to research on the scaling-up of vapor transmission resistance of winter wheat in typical areas of North China.
