| Abstract |
The paper gives results of an evaluation of forest canopy models for estimating isoprene emissions. Three approaches are compared for determining the leaf microclimate as input to biogenic emission inventory systems: (1) no-canopy effects, (2) a simple scaling model based on empirical vertical scaling relationships and a leaf energy balance, and (3) a numerical canopy model that explicitly accounts for leaf-sun geometries, photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration. Model-to-model comparisons and sensitivity analyses are presented to highlight the uncertainties involved in modeling leaf-level biogenic hydrocarbon emissions. A preliminary evaluation of these models is also presented based on measured isoprene fluxes from a southeastern deciduous forest. |
