Abstract:

Processed 10 minute surface sensible and latent heat flux measured at 160 cm above snow surface. The eddy covariance system included a Campbell Scientific CSAT3 and a Krypton Hygrometer KH20 which were directed into the mean wind. The latent heat flux was calculated assuming a latent heat of sublimation of 2835 J/g snow. The integration time was 10 minutes with the timestamps indicating the end of the averaging period.
