Figure 4

Average monthly values of latent ( ; open symbols, dashed lines), sensible ( ; closed symbols, solid lines), and ground ( ; inverted triangles; dotted lines) heat fluxes, and the Bowen ratio (β; cross symbols, long-dashed lines) for the campo sujo cerrado at Fazenda Miranda during the study period. The shaded areas define the climatological dry season defined as the consecutive months when precipitation < 100 mm/month.
