Impact of soot pollution on radiation and water balance characteristics in maize
Keywords:
evapotranspiration, albedo, black carbon, maizeAbstract
Investigations were carried out on maize contaminated with atmospheric soot (black carbon, BC) under field conditions. The examinations included basic plant growth and developmental properties (leaf area index, LAI), a few radiation indicators and water balance terms. Out of water balance members the evapotranspiration, from heat balance the albedo – reflecting the reflectance of solar radiation- and net radiation were taken into account in field study. Energy proportioning, the latent and sensible heat fluxes helped get information about relationship between two different budgets, the water and heat balances of contaminated maize. The advantage of our research was the pioneer work to simulate atmospheric soot pollution from transport under non-laboratory conditions.
