Nonequilibrium thermodynamic approach to biological energy-conversion systems

Thesis/Dissertation Dowd, M K

This work describes the behavior of assemblies of individual energy converting subunits. The linear phenomenological laws of nonequilibrium thermodynamics are used as constitutional equations that describe the relationship between the forces and flows of a subunit. These relationships along with the restrictions imposed because of the organization of the system are used to derive equations relating the overall flows and forces. Two types of systems are considered: where the total input flow is the sum of the individual input flows, and the output flow is either also the sum of the subunit flows or is the same as each subunitmore »« less
Non-closure of the surface energy balance explained by phase difference between vertical velocity and scalars of large atmospheric eddies

Journal Article Gao, Zhongming ; Liu, Heping ; Katul, Gabriel G. ; ... - Environmental Research Letters

It is now accepted that large-scale turbulent eddies impact the widely reported non-closure of the surface energy balance when latent and sensible heat fluxes are measured using the eddy covariance method in the atmospheric surface layer (ASL). However, a mechanistic link between large eddies and non-closure of the surface energy balance remains a subject of inquiry. Here, measured 10 Hz time series of vertical velocity, air temperature, and water vapor density collected in the ASL are analyzed for conditions where entrainment and/or horizontal advection separately predominate. The series are decomposed into small- and large- eddies based on a frequency cutoffmore »« less

Mechanistic links between underestimated CO ₂ fluxes and non-closure of the surface energy balance in a semi-arid sagebrush ecosystem

Journal Article Gao, Zhongming ; Liu, Heping ; Missik, Justine E. C. ; ... - Environmental Research Letters

The surface energy balance non-closure problem in eddy covariance (EC) studies has been largely attributed to the influence of large-scale turbulent eddies (hereafter large eddies) on latent and sensible heat fluxes. However, how such large eddies concurrently affect CO₂ fluxes remains less studied and mechanistic links between the energy balance non-closure and CO₂ fluxes are not well understood. Here, using turbulence data collected from an EC tower over a sagebrush ecosystem during two growing seasons, we decomposed the turbulence data into small and large eddies at a cutoff frequency and analyzed their contributions to the fluxes. We found that themore »« less

Investigating the mechanisms responsible for the lack of surface energy balance closure in a central Amazonian tropical rainforest

Journal Article Gerken, Tobias ; Ruddell, Benjamin L. ; Fuentes, Jose D. ; ... - Agricultural and Forest Meteorology

This work investigates the diurnal and seasonal behavior of the energy balance residual (E) that results from the observed difference between available energy and the turbulent fluxes of sensible heat (H) and latent heat (LE) at the FLUXNET BR-Ma2 site located in the Brazilian central Amazon rainforest. The behavior of E is analyzed by extending the eddy covariance averaging length from 30 min to 4 h and by applying an Information Flow Dynamical Process Network to diagnose processes and conditions affecting E across different seasons. Results show that the seasonal turbulent flux dynamics and the Bowen ratio are primarily drivenmore »« less

On the surface energy balance closure at different temporal scales

Journal Article Grachev, Andrey A. ; Fairall, Christopher W. ; Blomquist, Byron W. ; ... - Agricultural and Forest Meteorology

Measurements of the surface energy fluxes (turbulent and radiative) and other ancillary atmospheric/soil parameters made in the Columbia River Basin (Oregon) in an area of complex terrain during a 10-month long portion of the second Wind Forecast Improvement Project (WFIP 2) field campaign are used to study the surface energy budget (SEB) and surface fluxes over different temporal scales. This study analyzes and discusses SEB closure based on half-hourly, daily, monthly, seasonal, and sub-annual (~10-month) temporal averages. The data were collected over all four seasons for different states of the underlying ground surface (dry, wet, and frozen). Our half-hourly directmore »« less
