Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a net radiation (R) of 500 W/m², soil heat flux (G) of 100 W/m², derive the latent heat flux assuming no sensible heat flux is present.

💡 Hint: Ensure you correctly apply the conservation of energy principle.

Question 2

A researcher noted that the latent heat flux was significantly increasing in an area with little rainfall. What might this indicate about the local environmental conditions?

💡 Hint: Think about environmental factors influencing ET.
