Real­time simulation of the iterative calculation of
the satellite based surface energy fluxes

This will be a continuing post which will be updated until most of the
real time simulations are shown.

An iterative procedure is still used to converge fluxes in evapotranspiration (ET)
calculation in many ET models like METRIC, SEBAL and SEBS. In this post, a
real­time simulation is shown to expedite the satellite based surface energy
balance fluxes in low wind speed condition. In the surface energy balance,
stability correction of aerodynamic resistance is necessary as it affects the
computation of sensible heat flux. The Monin­Obukhov stability length (L) can be
calculated either from an iterative process using wind profiles, temperature and

humidity or through more complicated measurements of wind speed, sensible
heat flux, and latent heat flux. The Monin­Obukhov similarity functions are used
to define momentum (ψ) and heat (ψ) stability correction. While computing
Monin­Obukhov similarity functions, a set of the equations must be solved
iteratively as friction velocity (u*) and L (Monin­Obukhov length) are
interdependent. These variables should be revised until the parameters of the
surface energy balance converge within prescribed limits between successive
iterations.
