This study was part of the large multidisciplinary ecosystem investigations undertaken in Sweden during the 70's. One of the main aims of the abiotic research was to deepen our understanding of the physical processes governing the local-and microclimate of northern coniferous forests. As part of this, the energy budget of a sparse pine forest in central Sweden was intensively studied. Analysis of Bowen ratio measurements during 1977 and 1978 showed that the fraction of net radiation (R n) utilized for sensible and latent heat (LE) fluxes was not constant over the season. The ratio LE R n increased from about 40% in May to about 60% in August and September. The mean daytime latent heat flux from a dry canopy was about 135 W m− 2 in May, increasing to 150–160 W m− 2 in July and August and then decreasing to 100 W m− 2 in September. The sensible heat flux decreased from about 190 W m− 2 in May to 55 W m− 2 in September. The mean daytime energy storage rate was largest in May and September with about 23 W m− 2 and smallest in July with 12 W m− 2. The Bowen ratio at noon decreased from about 2 in May to 0.5-1 in August and September. During a period of six days, simultaneous measurements of evapotranspiration from the ground vegetation and the whole forest were made. Averaged over the daytime period, about 59% of the net radiation was used for latent heat flux, 32% for sensible heat flux and 9% for storage. Only 13% of the latent heat flux came from the ground vegetation while more than 50% of the sensible heat flux originated from the ground. Comparison between four European coniferous forests showed that the mean daytime latent heat flux varied relatively little. The mean rate was 135±27 W m− 2 and there was no correlation between density of forest and rate of latent heat flux.
