Turbulent coherent structures developed in the atmospheric surface layer are responsible for a large part of momentum and scalar fluxes exchanged with canopy layers. Their participation in processes such as evapotranspiration, pathogen infections, mechanical damage due to wind gustiness, modifies cr...
