A remote sensing surface energy balance algorithm for land (SEBAL)-1. Formulation
TLDR
The Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) as mentioned in this paper estimates the spatial variation of most essential hydro-meteorological parameters empirically, and requires only field information on short wave atmospheric transmittance, surface temperature and vegetation height.About:

Hydrologic responses to land cover change: the case of Jedeb mesoscale catchment, Abay/Upper Blue Nile basin, Ethiopia
Sirak Tekleab,Yasir A. Mohamed,Yasir A. Mohamed,Stefan Uhlenbrook,Stefan Uhlenbrook,Jochen Wenninger,Jochen Wenninger +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the impacts of land use/land cover (LULC) change on the hydrology of the Jedeb, an agricultural dominated mesoscale catchment, in the Abay/Upper Blue Nile basin, Ethiopia.

Observational data and scale-dependent parameterizations: explorations using a virtual hydrological reality
TL;DR: A data-based mechanistic approach was used to model evapotranspiration from 1 km data, as though they were available from remote sensing, and the resulting parameterization is of a similar form to an evaporative fraction model, an example of the type of parameterization that could be used to describe the land surface.

Latent heat flux estimation in clear sky days over Indian agroecosystems using noontime satellite remote sensing data
Kaniska Mallick,Bimal K. Bhattacharya,V. U. M. Rao,D. Raji Reddy,Saon Banerjee,H. Venkatesh,Vyas Pandey,Gouranga Kar,J. Mukherjee,Sarweshwar P. Vyas,Alaka S. Gadgil,N. K. Patel +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified evaporative fraction (Λ) based single-source energy balance scheme was tested with moderate resolution (∼1.km) noontime satellite observations to evaluate clear sky latent heat flux (λE) estimates over diverse agricultural landscapes.

Estimation of evapotranspiration in an arid region by remote sensing—A case study in the middle reaches of the Heihe River Basin
TL;DR: The results observed within the oasis and the banks of the river suggest that more evapotranspiration occurs in the inland river basin in the arid region from May to September, and reinforce the conclusion that rational utilization of water resources in the Oasis is essential to manage the water Resources in the inward river basin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Different approaches in estimating heat flux using dual angle observations of radiative surface temperature
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a two-source Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere Transfer (SVAT) to a physically based radiative transfer model in the thermal infrared bands (RTM-TIR0) which allowed for simulating convective fluxes and components and directional temperature under different surface and atmospheric conditions.

The Interpretation of the Variations in Leaf Water Potential and Stomatal Conductance Found in Canopies in the Field
TL;DR: In this paper, the stomatal conductance of illuminated leaves is a function of current levels of temperature, vapour pressure deficit, leaf water potential (really turgor pressure) and ambient CO $_2$ concentration and when plotted against any one of these variables a scatter diagram results.

A Revised Land Surface Parameterization (SiB2) for Atmospheric GCMS. Part I: Model Formulation
Piers J. Sellers,David A. Randall,G. J. Collatz,Joseph A. Berry,Christopher B. Field,D. A. Dazlich,Changan Zhang,G.D. Collelo,Lahouari Bounoua +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a revised version of the Simple Biosphere model (SiB2) is presented, incorporating a realistic canopy photosynthesis-conductance model to describe the simultaneous transfer of CO2 and water vapor into and out of the vegetation, respectively.

Flux Parameterization over Land Surfaces for Atmospheric Models
TL;DR: In this article, a summary of observations and modeling efforts on surface fluxes, carried out at Cabauw in The Netherlands and during MESOGERS-84 in the south of France, is given.

Footprint prediction of scalar fluxes from analytical solutions of the diffusion equation
TL;DR: The use of analytical solutions of the diffusion equation for "footprint prediction" is explored in this paper, where the upwind area most likely to affect a downwind flux measurement at a given height is compared.

Wheat canopy temperature: A practical tool for evaluating water requirements
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a sliding cubic smoothing technique to calculate daily water contents and thus water depletion rates for the entire growing season and used this to predict water use by wheat in six differentially irrigated plots.
