Since our model employs a single layer of vegetation, there is only one pair of air resistors to consider within the vegetation canopy: one between the leaf surface and the surrounding air and another between the ground surface and the interleaf air spaces. After that, the ground fluxes and leaf fluxes join and move above the canopy through air resistance at the top and above the canopy, called r_a; this resistance, like all resistances we have see thus far, decreases with increasing wind speed.  3, record 2, English, - air%20resistance

The transpiration flux must pass through several resistors between the interior of the leaf and the airstream above the plant canopy. First is the resistance imposed by the leaf skin, then the air resistance in the leaf boundary layer, and finally the air resistance between the interleaf air spaces and the atmosphere above the plant canopy.  2, record 2, English, - air%20resistance

Returning to the Earth involves the problem of decreasing the spacecraft's great speed. To do this, an orbiting spacecraft uses small rockets to redirect its flight path into the upper atmosphere. This action is called de-orbit. A spacecraft returning to the Earth from the moon or from another planet also aims its path to skim the upper atmosphere. Air resistance then provides the rest of the necessary deceleration (speed reduction).  1, record 3, English, - air%20resistance
