How can I check ground heat flux?

Dear everyone on Unmet Hours,

I am now working to apply EP to agricultural production in greenhouses. I have observed data of temperature, humidity and ground heat transfer. Because, usually, ground in greenhouses is exposed, the condition of floor is so different from the other types of building.

So, I want to check how ground heat flux is estimated in EP. But rdd file doesn't include any output variables related to ground heat flux.

In this case, is there any way to check ground heat flux? I need any kind of tips from you.

Thanks.
