Flux de chaleur dans le sol rendant respectivement compte du transport de chaleur par conduction dans le sol ainsi que du transfert d'eau sous la forme de vapeur. 2, record 1, French, - flux%20de%20chaleur%20dans%20le%20sol
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Le flux de chaleur dans le sol présente des variations périodiques, quotidiennes et annuelles, auxquelles s'ajoutent des variations transitoires non prédictibles, essentiellement liées aux mouvement des masses d'air. La variation annuelle du flux de chaleur dans les sols des régions tempérées, de l'ordre de 10 W·m-2, pénètre le sol de manière satisfaisante. [...] les perturbations imposées en surface par le labour et les changements d'humidité en surface, de même que l'existence des variations transitoires rendent son utilisation difficile. 3, record 1, French, - flux%20de%20chaleur%20dans%20le%20sol
