Abstract
The evaluation of latent and sensible heat fluxes of a flat-form peach tree orchard by a flux-resistance approach is presented as compared to the direct measurements of the same fluxes performed by eddy covariance.
The remotely-sensed infra-red temperature of the canopy hedges allows the calculation of the fluxes on a seasonal basis with a good degree of accuracy.
The flux-resistance model appears hence to offer reliable estimates for a well-watered orchard, its applications leading to very small overestimation in latent heat flux in comparison with eddy covariance data.
