TL;DR: The concept of constant flux ratios is tested by means of data obtained during the First ISLSCP Field Experiment; the instantaneous evaporation values were calculated by using the atmospheric boundary layer bulk similarity approach with radiosonde profiles and radiative surface temperatures as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results of 1 year (from March 25, 2003 to March 24, 2004, 366 days) of continuous measurements of net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) above a steppe in Mongolia using the eddy covariance technique.

TL;DR: In this article, the First ISLSCP Field Experiment (FIFE) in northeastern Kansas was used to estimate daily evaporation by means of continuous measurements of the available energy flux at the surface and one or more instantaneous determinations of the evaporative fraction (EF).

TL;DR: In this paper, the first International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project Field Experiment in north-eastern Kansas, surface temperature was measured by infrared radiation thermometers at some 12 stations spread over the 15 × 15 km experimental area.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the seasonal development of how net all-wave radiation (Rn) above a typical steppe in central Mongolia is partitioned into the three components: sensible heat (H), latent heat (lE), and soil heat flux (G) flux.
