## Abstract The effect of forest litter on snow surface albedo has been subject to limited study, mainly in the hardwoodβdominated forests of the northeastern United States. Given the recent pine beetle infestation in Western North America and associated increases in litter production, this study e

## Abstract The diurnal variation of the average albedo, during 1970, over a tropical dry evergreen forest and a nearby clearing was investigated. The study is based on a most comprehensive set of solar radiation data in Southeast Asia. A strong dependence of the albedo on the zenith angle is evide
## Abstract Estimates of sensible and latent heat flux measured above a __Pinus radiata__ forest plantation, 11km north of Mt Gambier in South Australia, by eddyβcorrelation instrumentation, were found to satisfy the forest energy budget to within 20% provided the mean windspeed was greater than ab
The albedo of an oak forest was measured on 16 days throughout the year. Growing-season albedo ranged from 16 to 18% with variations due to cloud conditions. Autumn albedos did not increase with leaf color changes and until leaf fall was nearly complete remained similar to growing season values. Dor
