EGS session HS6
Stomatal and canopy resistances in mathematical modelling of
SVAT systems
Plant canopies interact with the atmosphere through exchange of mass
and energy. A realistic representation of transfer processes at the
vegetation-atmosphere interface requires to take into account the
canopy resistance as a physiologically controlled component of the
surface resistance. Thus the canopy resistances for water vapour,
C- and N- gasses are key features in improvement and development of
soil-vegetation-atmosphere transfer (SVAT) models. Although the concept
based on the surface resistance remains too complex at present for
operational use with limited data, this approach offers an opportunity
for the progress in mathematical modelling of interrelations in
soil-vegetation-atmosphere continuum.
This symposium will look at the results of theoretical and experimental
studies addressing the measurement, estimation and parametrisation
of stomatal resistances for leaf, plant and canopy. Results of the
research dealing with relationships between leaf and canopy resistances,
especially for sparse and heterogeneous canopies are welcome, as well
as the contributions to better understanding of dependences of stomatal
and canopy resistances on environmental factors and internal processes
affecting the behaviour of stomata.
