Hello,
I noticed in a lecture slide provided during the code_bright course last year (see attachment) that sensible heat flux at the boundary is correlated to heat conduction in the soil. I have consulted with a civil engineering professor who's specialty is evapotranspiration, and he has informed me that it is rather ground heat flux (usually denoted as G, denoted as j_e in manual and lecture slides) not sensible heat flux. I have not found anywhere in the manual that couples sensible heat flux with Fourier's law.
Could you please confirm that it is ground heat flux (or j_e) that is coupled with Fourier's law, not sensible heat flux, in the software? In not, could you please explain the use of sensible heat flux?
Thank you,
Melia
