TL;DR: In this article, a two-leaf model was proposed to predict net photosynthesis, latent and sensible heat fluxes of a canopy quite accurately under a wide range of soil water availability and meteorological conditions, as compared with the multi-layer model.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine how a number of abiotic, biotic and edaphic factors modulate water and energy flux densities over an oak-grass savanna and an annual grassland that coexist in the same climate but on soils with different hydraulic properties.

TL;DR: In this paper, surface energy exchanges were measured in a sequence of five sites representing the major vegetation types in the transition from arctic tundra to forest, and the influence of vegetation structure on the rates of sensible heating and evapotranspiration was examined.
