what is evaporation influenced by?
topography, land use, meteorology, water availability..
what is the most important component of the water balance?
evapotranspiration
evaporation impacts..
water availability, hydrograph shape and peaks
solar constant
solar declination
I0=1366 W/m2
delta= 23.45°
equation of radiation
Ri = Rr + Ra + Rt
incoming = reflection + absorbtion + transmission
what causes diffuse radiation?
scattering of incoming radiation
Rsw = Rdir + Rdif
Radiation at the top of the atmosphere?
and on the surface?
Rsw = I0/4 = 342 W/m2 (due to shape and night)
surface = 188 W/m2
kirchhoffs law
R1/a1=R2/a2 or R1/e1=R2/e2
a: absorptivity, e: emissivity
"a good reflector is a bad emitter"
a=1 -> black body
plancks law
R= R(lambda, T),
Rtot = integral from 0 to infinity over R(lambda)d_lambda
wiens law
lambda_max = b/T
b: wiens konstant = 2898 um/K
describs the displacement of the wavelength with max radiation depending on the Temperature
stefan bolzmann law
Rtot = sigma * T4
radiation as a function of Temperature
albedo
alpha = Rr/Ri
alpha = alpha(lambda)
net radiation
Rn = Rsw(1-alpha) + RLW_in - R_LW_out
Rn = reflected + atmos - surface
RLW_in = ecs*K*sigma*TA4
RLW_out = es*K*sigma*Ts4
K is funct of cloud cover
e is frunct of vapour presure and temp
energy balance
Rn - lambda*E - H - G -Lp*Fp + AH = dU/dt
net radiation - latent heat - sensible heat - ground heat flux - energy from carbon fluxes (photosynthesis) + energy advection = energy stored in the system
simplified energy balance
Rn - lambda*E -H -G =0
examples for lambda*E > and < H
lambda*E >> H: over the ocean
lambda*E << H: in the city
equal: on human body
what is transported by the atmosphere?
momentum
energy
mass
which quantities are how transported in the atmosphere?
heat: diffusion, conduction -> H = -KdT/dz [J/m2s]
momentum: laminar conduction -> tau = mu*du/dz [Ns/m2s]
mass: diffusion -> Q = -D* dC/dz or E=-D*dq/dz [kg/m2s]
K: thermal conductivity
D: molecular diffusivity
mu: dynamic viscosity
boundary layers
ABL
SBL-> dynamic sublayer + interface sublayer
simplified turbulent fluxes in the atmosphere
mass: E=rho*Δq/rav
energy: H=rho*Cp*ΔT/rah
momentum: tau=rho*u/ram
Evaporation: E=f(???)
E=f(Δq, Δe, u, T)
u=0, free convection -> f(Ta-Ts)
u>0, forced convection -> f(u)
e_sat at 0°C and 100°C
e_sat(0)= 610 Pa
e_sat(100) = 101325 Pa
methods to calculate evaporation
water budget
energy budget
mass transfer -> aerodynamic method
combined mass and energy transfer -> perman approach
calculate Evaporation using water budget
ET =Pr +Qi -Qo
assumption: dS/dt = 0
calculate evaporation using the simplified energy budget
Rn- lambda*E - H - G = 0
further simplified:
Rn - lambda *E - H = 0
-> E = Rn/(lambda* (1+Bo))
problem: qs=?? and Ts=??
-> assumption: Bo = const or 0
-> E=Rn/lambda [kg m-2 s-1]
-> E = Rn/(roh_w* lambda) [m s-1]
Bowen Ratio
problems of Bo
Bo = H/(lambda*E) = sensible heat/ latent heat
= (Cp*ΔT)/(lambda*Δq)
problems: usually qs and Ts are unknown
calculate evaporation using mass transfer (aerodynamic method)
E = (rho*Δq)/ra
empirical observations: E = f(u)(es-ea) -> f(u) = (0.622/P)*(rho/ra) -> Problem: es still unknown
assumption: es = esat(Ts) = esat(Ta) -> E = ~f(u)(es(Ta)-ea)
~f(u): empirical function, but often is the theoretical f used
calculation of evaopration using the penman equation
ideas
combination of mass and energy transfer
Δ = desat/dT=[esat(Ts)-esat(Ta)]/(Ts-Ta) ≈ f(Ta)
Priestley-Taylor Equation
E=Δ/(Δ+gamma)*Eene + gamma/(Δ+gamma)*Eaer
approximation:
E≈1.26*Δ/(Δ+gamma)*Eene
issues of potential evaporation
typically ea and Ta are not in potential condition
generally: potential = not limited by the supply
-> reduction factor: E = Epot*ßR, ßR=f(θ), θ: water content
Transpiration is a function of:
Δq, Δe, u, Ta + Plant physiology
how can plants control Transpiration
vary LAI
open/close stomata
Canopy resistance
rc = rs/LAI = somata resistance/ leaf area index
stomata resistance depends on:
An, Δe,CO2, θ, N
methods to measure evapotranspiration
eddy covariance: direct measurement of turbulent fluctuations ov vert. wind vel. and specific humidity
pan evaporation: usually needs to be corrected by 0.7 due to eddy turbulences at edges.
Lysimeter: weight loss of a soil control volume
unsaturated zone
≈ vadose zone
source of moisture for vegetation
E+T and recharge into deeper auquifers occur
constrols separation bewteen runoff and infiltration -> dominant for hydr processes
highly non-linear
