Abstract
The present investigation entitled “Estimation of surface energy fluxes over
mustard crop using two source energy balance model” was laid out in research
farm near Agrometeorological observatory, B. A. College of Agriculture, AAU,
Anand (Gujarat), India during 2019-2020. The soil of the experiment field was loamy
sand. The objectives were to parameterize of two source energy balance model for
mustard crop, estimation of surface energy fluxes over mustard crop and validation of
TSEB-2T model.
The treatment combinations consisting of four levels of sowing dates in a main
plot and three varieties of mustard in a sub-plot were tested under split plot design
with four replication. Three cultivars namely, Bio 902, GM 3 and GDM 4 were sown
on 10th October, 20th October, 30th October and 10th November. Periodical plant
biometric observations and micrometeorological observations were taken from each
plot of a single replication at weekly and every alternate day respectively.
