Winter vegetation #411

Closed SimoneBeltramino closed 2 years ago

SimoneBeltramino commented 2 years ago

To simulate a winter scenario how is it recommended to represent the vegetation? Can the software take into account, and if so how, the fact that the vegetation in winter has a lower leaf area density (LAD)?

Thank you, Simone

If you are referring to radiation modelling or shading effects, we usually set the transmissivity to 50%
