  3. 2. Influence of structural complexity of the Rumperöd forest on evapotranspiration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Madeleine Durdek; [2023]
    Keywords : Forest structural complexity; evapotranspiration; vapour pressure deficit; eddy covariance; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The influence of Forest Structural Complexity (FSC) on evapotranspiration (ET) was investigated in a mixed forest of Southern Sweden where micrometeorological Eddy Covariance (EC) measurements were conducted for the years 2015 to 2022. For each year, the top 25% of Vapour Pressure Deficit (VPD) were selected to emphasize the response of ET to the driest atmospheric conditions. READ MORE
