Explaining the convector effect in canopy turbulence by means of large-eddy simulation
Semi-arid forests are found to sustain a massive sensible heat flux in spite of having a low surface to air temperature difference by lowering the aerodynamic resistance to heat transfer (<i>r</i><sub>H</sub>) – a property called the <q>canopy convector effect</q&...
