Within micrometeorology the term modeling is not uniquely defined. It refers to various methods covering a range of complexity extending from simple regressions up to complicated numerical models . In applied meteorology (agro meteorology and hydro meteorology) simple analytical models are very common. Modeling of evaporation is particularly important but sophisticated numerical methods are not yet widely used in this research area. The following chapter describes different types of models and their limitations beginning with simple analytical methods up to numerical models of near-surface energy and matter transport. The application of models in heterogeneous terrain receives special attention and related flux averaging approaches are addressed in a separate subchapter.
