Abstract
The experimental testing of a multi-layer model to simulate surface wetness duration (SWD) in a canopy is presented. A previous model was modified by including the heat conduction from dry areas of leaves to water deposits. Field tests after sprinkling during humid and cloudy weather are reported for 10 days in the summers of 1985 and 1986. The discussion is focused on the importance of heat conduction and the influence of water distribution on leaves in determining SWD.
