Estimating evaporation for low wind speeds at an eddy correlation site: potential for windbreak evaluation
(New Zealand Hydrological Society, 2019)Creating new windbreaks may reduce lee evaporation by reducing surface wind speed (u). However, applying theoretical models to anticipate the extent of evaporation reduction may be liable to error because the physical ... -
Evaporation from a raised peat bog
(Elsevier, 1997-06-01)Evaporation rates were measured for an oligotrophic raised peat bog dominated by the restionaceous rush Empodisma minus (Hook. f.) Johnson and Cutler in northern New Zealand. Evaporation rates were smaller than those found ... -
Factors contributing to the unnaturally low water table of Moanatuatua Scientific Reserve, Waikato, New Zealand
(The University of Waikato, 2018)Water table regime in peatlands (depth below the peat surface) is an important driver in biochemical processes. A deep water table can lead to increased rates of peat decomposition resulting in surface subsidence, release ... -
Fluxes of Energy and Water Vapour from Grazed Pasture on a Mineral Soil in the Waikato
(The University of Waikato, 2009)The eddy covariance (EC) technique was used to measure half hourly fluxes of energy and evaporation from 15 December 2007 to 30 November 2008 at the Scott Research Farm, located 7 km east of Hamilton. Many other supporting ... -
The Use of Solubility Parameters to Select Membrane Materials for Pervaporation of Organic Mixtures
(The University of Waikato, 2006)Pevaporation is a method for separating volatile components from liquid mixtures at ambient temperatures. The paint processing industry uses Hansen solubility parameters (HSP) to indicate polymer solubility. The potential ...
