Abstract:Abstract. The role of secondary circulations has recently been studied in the context of well defined surface heterogeneity in a semi-arid ecosystem where it was found that energy balance closure over a desert-forest system and the structure of the boundary layer was impacted by advection and flux divergence. As a part of the CliFF (Climate Feedbacks and benefits of semiarid forests, a collaboration between KIT, Germany and the Weizmann Institute, Israel) campaign, we studied the boundary layer dynamics and tu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
