On the characteristics of formation of coherent structure and turbulence in a dense forest of land measuring up to 80m in height: Project ATTO - CLAIRE - IOP1-2012

Abstract

The characterization of formation of coherent structure by means of momentum transport and heat, above and within the canopy of an upland forest, is described here using as primary focus turbulent flow the vorticity of the flow through the quadrant analysis and the Morlet wavelet transformed into power spectrum for the temperature. The identification of vorticity and coherent structure for the studied levels were observed, with the "background" tower of 84 m, the intensive observation period -1 (IOP-1/2012), in the forest of SDR -Uatumã -AM -Brazil.
