Abstract
Abstract Measurements of energy partition for Amazonian forest made with novel eddy correlation equipment are presented for eight dry days in September 1983. These are interpreted to provide estimates of the aerodynamic and surface resistance for this vegetation type. Daily total evaporation for a transpiring canopy accounts for 70% of the available radiant energy, and is two thirds of conventional estimates of potential evaporation. The results are used to provide an initial calibration of a simple, physically based model of daily evaporation for Amazonian rain forest.

It is shown that a satisfactory account can be given of open water evaporation at four widely spaced sites in America and Europe, the results for bare soil receive a reasonable check in India, and application of theresults for turf shows good agreement with estimates of evapolation from catchment areas in the British Isles.

Progress towards a reconciliation of parallel concepts in meteorology and physiology is described, which stresses the importance of physiological restraint on the rate of transpiration from an irrigated field surrounded by dry land.

Tests indicate that, provided care is taken in interpreting the data in terms of the performance and exposure of the sensors, the system described is capable of adequately measuring energy fluxes at unattended sites.
