Respected
Sir
This is Suman Maity from IIT KHARAGPUR, India.I have the following queries:
1) As you know, there is no variable for Latent Heat Flux in the Surface Model output in RegCM4. How to calculate this?
2) There is no variable for Evaporation.One variable is written as Evapotranspiration. Could I use this for calculation taking as evaporation?
I have searched and previously in regcnet, you have written,
Latent Heat = evporation * 2.51040e6 (if Tas > 0C)But what is "Tas"? It stands for what? Also from where I will get evaporation?
= evporation * 2.844e6 (if Tas <= 0C)
Precisely, to convert to unit of W/m**2
Latent Heat = evporation * 2.51040e6/86400 (if Tas > 0C)
= evporation * 2.844e6/86400 (if Tas <= 0C)
