An Empirical Method of Estimating Soil Thermal Inertia
A method of estimating soil thermal inertia (STI), which uses midday soil heat flux (Gm) and diurnal surface temperature amplitude as the inputs, is presented in the paper. Gm is achieved from an empirical relationship between net radiation (Rn) and soil heat flux (G). To validate the STI method, a...
