Meteorological Factors Affected Dew Condensation in Marsh Ecosystem
Dew is one of crucial factors in the water and nutrient cycle in wetland ecosystem, especially playing an important role in the water and nutrients balance. Identifying the meteorological factors which affect the formation of dew is necessary. The meteorological condition is the key factor of dew condensing; therefore, it is necessary to identify the relationship between meteorological factors and dew formation. Dew amount was monitored and collected in the Sanjiang Plain. The highest mean dew amounts at Sanjiang Plain were observed in Craex lasiocarpa community (0.130mm night-1). Nearly 50% dew events correspond to the smallest yields (<0.04 mm="" night="" sup="">-1) and it is implies there are around half days are unsuitable for dew condensation in Craex lasiocarpa community. Our study impies that dew data, taken in growthing season of 2003 to 2005 and 2008, correlated positive with relative humidity, dew point temperature, and vapour pressure.
