In this paper some of aspects in modeling over sparse vegetation using the Land-Air Parameterization Scheme (LAPS), including an approach in calculating the turbulent transfer coefficient using “K-theory” inside a sparse vegetation canopy, were considered. For this purpose, the scheme was run for different sparse agricultural cultivars, i.e., apple orchard, winter wheat and soybean crops, at different sites. The modeled values for surface fluxes, canopy temperature and soil moisture content, were compared with observations.
