\section{PALM's Canopy Model}
\subsection{The embedded Canopy Model}

%Folie 01
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Overview}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{The canopy model embedded in PALM can be used to study the effect of a plant canopy on:}
      \begin{itemize}
         \item<2->{mean flow field,}
         \item<3->{development of coherent turbulence structures,}
         \item<4->{scalar exchange processes between canopy and atmosphere.}
      \end{itemize}
      \item<5->{Within the canopy model, the plant canopy acts as a sink for momentum and as a source/sink for active (temperature) and passive (e.g. tracer) scalars.}
      \item<6->{The canopy model does not account for each plant element, but rather accounts for a volume averaged effect on the flow and scalar concentration, depending on:}
      \begin{itemize}
         \item<7->{leaf area distribution,}
         \item<8->{drag coefficient.}
      \end{itemize}
   \end{itemize}
\end{frame}



%Folie 02
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Theory (I)}
   \begin{footnotesize}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{A plant canopy affects the flow by acting as a momentum sink due to form and viscous drag forces.}
      \item<2->{The effectiveness of momentum absorption depends on the amount of leaf area per unit volume and the aerodynamic drag.}
      \item<3->{Due to the aerodynamic drag the flow is decelerated within the canopy, leading to an inflection point in the vertical profile of the horizontal velocity at the canopy top.

      }
   \end{itemize}
   \end{footnotesize}
\end{frame}



%Folie 03
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Theory (II)}
   \begin{footnotesize}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{The inflection point in the velocity profile introduces instabilities to the flow, leading to the formation of Kelvin-Helmholtz waves near the canopy top (\textcircled{{\tiny 1}})}
      \item<2->{Wave breaking induces further instabilities, whereby a longitudinal component is added to the developing turbulence structures (\textcircled{{\tiny 2}} \& \textcircled{{\tiny 3}})}
      \item<3->{Due to the persistent instabilities the turbulence structures develop a distinct three-dimensionality (\textcircled{{\tiny 4}})}
      \item<4->{The large turbulence structures developing due to the inflection point instability significantly contribute to the vertical mixing of in-canopy and above-canopy air.

%Folie 04
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Methods (I)}
   \begin{footnotesize}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{The canopy model in PALM is based on the models used by Shaw and Schumann (1992) and Watanabe (2004).}
      \item<2->{The aerodynamic effect of the canopy on the turbulent flow is accounted for by an additional term in the momentum equations:\\
         \begin{align*}
            \frac{\partial \bar{u}_{i}}{\partial t} = \text{...} - c_{d} a U \bar{u}_{i}
         \end{align*}
      }
      \begin{itemize}
         \item<3->{ $c_{d}$ : drag coefficient}
         \item<4->{ $a $ : leaf area density $[m^{2}m^{-3}]$}
         \item<5->{ $U$ : $(u^{2} + v^{2} + w^{2})^{1/2}$ $[m s^{-1}]$}
         \item<6->{ $u_{i}$ : velocity component ($u_{1}=u$, $u_{2}=v$, $u_{3}=w$)}
      \end{itemize}
   \end{itemize}
   \uncover<7->{Note: The canopy model does not resolve the effect of single plant elements.}
   \end{footnotesize}
\end{frame}



%Folie 05
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Methods (II)}
   \begin{footnotesize}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{The effect of the canopy on the subgrid scale turbulence is accounted for by adding a sink term to the prognostic equation for the subgrid scale turbulent kinetic energy:\\
         \begin{align*}
            \frac{\partial e}{\partial t} = \text{...} - 2 c_{d} a U e
         \end{align*}
      }
      \item<2->{It is assumed that the subgrid scale turbulent kinetic energy is dissipated by the canopy due to the rapid dissipation of wake turbulence in the lee of canopy elements (e.g. Watanabe, 2004).}
   \end{itemize}
   \end{footnotesize}
\end{frame}



%Folie 06
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Methods (III)}
   \begin{footnotesize}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{If desired, the effect of the canopy on the sensible heat transport can be considered. A source term is added to the prognostic equation for potential temperature:\\
         \begin{align*}
            \frac{\partial \bar{\theta}}{\partial t} = \text{...} +  S_{\theta}
         \end{align*}
      }
      \item<2->{It is assumed that the foliage is warmed by the penetrating solar radiation and, in turn, warms the surrounding air.}
      \item<3->{The source strength $S_{\theta}$ is defined as the vertical derivative of the upward kinematic vertical heat flux given by (Shaw and Schumann, 1992):\\
         \begin{align*}
            Q_{\theta}(z) = Q_{\theta}(h) exp(-\alpha F) \text{ , } Q_{\theta}(h) \text{ : Heat flux at canopy top}
         \end{align*}
      }
      \begin{itemize}
         \item<4->{ $\alpha = 0.6$ (extinction coefficient)}
         \item<5->{ $F = \int\limits_{z}^{h} a \: dz$ (downward cumulative leaf area index)}
      \end{itemize}
   \end{itemize}
   \end{footnotesize}
\end{frame}



%Folie 07
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Methods (IV)}
   \begin{footnotesize}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{The canopy might act as a sink or source for other scalars $q$ (e.g. humidity, passive tracer). Therefore, an additional term is added to the scalar transport equation:\\
         \begin{align*}
            \frac{\partial \bar{q}}{\partial t} = \text{...} - c_{q} a U (\bar{q} - q_{c})
         \end{align*}
      }
      \begin{itemize}
         \item<2->{ $c_{q}$ : scalar exchange coefficient}
         \item<3->{ $q_{c}$ : scalar concentration at leaf surface}
      \end{itemize}
   \end{itemize}
   \end{footnotesize}

%Folie 08
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Basics (I)}
   \begin{itemize}
      \item<1->{The canopy model is switched on by setting the parameter {\small \texttt{plant\_canopy = .TRUE.}} within the \&inipar {\small \texttt{NAMELIST}} in the parameter file ({\small \texttt{PARIN}}).}
      \item<2->{All parameters for steering the canopy model are described in:\\
      {\scriptsize Documentation $\rightarrow$ Model steering $\rightarrow$ Parameters $\rightarrow$ Initialization $\rightarrow$ Canopy}\\
      (http://palm.muk.uni-hannover.de)
      }
      \item<3->{The following slides will describe how to set up a simulation with a simple horizontally homogeneous canopy block covering the entire model domain surface. In this case, {\small \texttt{plant\_canopy = 'block'}} must be set in \&inipar {\small \texttt{NAMELIST}}.}
   \end{itemize}

%Folie 09
\begin{frame}
   \frametitle{Basic canopy parameter (I)}
   The parameters for steering the canopy model have to be added to the \&inipar {\small \texttt{NAMELIST}} in the parameter file ({\small \texttt{PARIN}}).\\
    \begin{itemize}
       \item<1->{Step I: Define the upper boundary of the plant canopy layer using the parameter {\small \texttt{pch\_index (grid point index, default 0)}}. {\small \texttt{pch\_index}} specifies the number of grid points resolving the canopy layer in the vertical direction.}
