Parameter volume_​fraction_​of_​condensed_​water_​in_​soil_​at_​critical_​point

Properties

Properties of the parameter volume_​fraction_​of_​condensed_​water_​in_​soil_​at_​critical_​point
Name volume_fraction_of_condensed_water_in_soil_at_critical_point
Description "Condensed water" means liquid and ice. "Volume fraction" is used in the construction volume_fraction_of_X_in_Y, where X is a material constituent of Y. When soil moisture equals or exceeds the critical point evapotranspiration takes place at the potential rate and is controlled by the ambient meteorological conditions (temperature, wind, relative humidity). Evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and plant transpiration. Potential evapotranspiration is the rate at which evapotranspiration would occur under ambient conditions from a uniformly vegetated area when the water supply is not limiting.
