Abstract
A real time measuring system for the relevant components of micro climate of a peat production site is described. The system is applicable, during the production season, for the continuous monitoring of standard weather and heat flux components over milled peat. Potential and actual evaporation is calculated from the measured data. Actual evaporation was obtained with the aerodynamic method using the information of measured surface temperature. The method gave consistent results with the Bowen- ratio method which was used as the microclimatological reference. Due to practical reasons the net-radiationmeter had to be placed over an uncultivated peat. This resulted in an overall underestimation of the evaporation, particularly on the occasions of turning of the milled peat layer. The bias in evaporation can be improved by calculating the net-radiation from measured surface temperature and global radiation data. The evaporation patterns corresponding to harvest runs and occasions of turning of the milled peat layer are discussed.
