Abstract
The impact of surface heterogeneity on the energy imbalance problem was investigated using LES. LES is used in the investigation because of its ability to represent turbulent organized structures (TOS). It was revealed that the net heat transport by a clear mesoscale circulation is not small compared to total domain heat flux. The eddy covariance (EC) method, which underestimates the heat transport process, was used in this investigation excluding mesoscale wheat transport contribution. It was also observed that at strong mesoscale circulation, the surface energy budget estimation tends to get closer to zero.
