Abstract |
During the summer 1992, environmental and biogenic hydrocarbon emissions data were collected in a mixed hardwood forest at scales ranging from leaf to canopy to the mixed layer for the purpose of investigating issues related to the scale-up of leaf or branch level emission measurements to regional emission inventories. Results from canopy measurements are compared to several different forest canopy emission models. These range in complexity from a no-canopy effects method to the PC-BEIS canopy profile method to a numerical forest canopy radiative transfer model. The investigation includes a model-to-model intercomparison of predicted canopy environmental parameters including photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and leaf temperature. The work is seeking to evaluate relatively simple modeling approaches for use in regional emission inventories using field data and more sophisticated numerical models. |
