EMS 2017: Interannual and seasonal variation of momentum exchange

Interannual and seasonal variation of momentum exchange at a midlatitude mixed deciduous forest

Seasonal variation of leaf state affects momentum exchange between forest and the atmosphere. Nearly continuous 10 Hz sampling of relevant variables yielded half-hourly estimates of turbulent fluxes above and below the canopy of a predominantly red oak forest at Harvard Forest (42.53 N, 72.19 W, north central Massachusetts USA) during 2002-2011 period. These fluxes are used to assess seasonal and daily variation of momentum flux above forest, within and below the forest crown.

Topic was presented on EMS 2017 in Dublin, Ireland.
