Radiation balance in the sweet sorghum crop

  • 1. Universidade Federal de Pelotas (Brazil)

Description

The fluxes of incident solar radiation, reflected and net radiation were measured during the growing cicle of two fields of sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.), cus. BR-501 and BR-503, maintained under convenient irrigation level. Resultant data allowed to estimate the crop albedo as well as the estimates of Rn. (M.A.C.)

Abstract (Portuguese)

Estudam-se, durante o ciclo de desenvolvimento de duas variedades de sorgo sacarino (Sorghum bicolor L.), BR-501 e BR-503, os fluxos de radiacao solar global incidente, refletida e do balanco de radiacao total, radiacao liquida, em uma area irrigada. Estimam-se o albedo das culturas bem como equacoes de Rn. (M.A.C.)
