Abstract
Net radiation patterns for a riparian mesquite community are similar to net radiation patterns obtained for a humid forest. The net radiation peak of the open area was 61% of the net radiation peak above the canopy. The net radiation within a mesquite canopy peaked 9% higher but had a lower daily total value than the radiation above the canopy. The differences in net radiation peaks were attributed to differences in the canopy geometry, solar position, and surface reflectance, whereas differences in daily net radiation were attributed to differences in surface reflectance characteristics.
