Abstract  Using the observation data of Experimental Study of Land Surface Processes in Chinese Loess Plateau (LOPEX) for the period of June, 2010 at Dingxi observation station, this article compared the differences between LAS and EC observed sensible heat flux by introducing the vertical sensible heat advection as an effective surface energy to sensible heat flux of EC observation. The results suggested that the mainly air movement at Dingxi observation station is upward with the max value of 0.074 m·s-1, providing the necessary dynamic conditions for vertical advection. Furthermore, for the site locating at semi-arid areas, the surface is well heated by solar radiation, and that causes a large temperature gradient near surface with a max value of 0.39 K·m-1, which provides the energy basis for generating vertical advection. When the contribution of vertical sensible heat advection is taken into consideration, the daily average surface energy unclosure of EC reduced from 0.30 to 0.24, and the linear fitting coefficient between LAS and EC measured sensible heat flux reduced from 1.258 to 1.186, which indicates that the differences between LAS and EC measured sensible heat flux could be reduced after the correction.
Key words:  Large Aperture Scintillometer (LAS)      Eddy Covariance system (EC)      difference of sensible heat flux      EC's surface energy unclosure      vertical sensible heat advection
