Types of vegetation and land use
significantly affect evapotranspiration,
and therefore the amount of water
leaving a drainage basin. Because water
transpired through leaves comes from
the roots, plants with deep reaching roots
can more constantly transpire water.
Herbaceous plants generally transpire
less than woody plants because they
usually have less extensive foliage.
Conifer forests tend to have higher rates
of evapotranspiration than deciduous
forests, particularly in the dormant and
early spring seasons. This is primarily
due to the enhanced amount of
precipitation intercepted and evaporated
by conifer foliage during these periods.[3]
Factors that affect evapotranspiration
include the plant's growth stage or level
of maturity, percentage of soil cover,
solar radiation, humidity, temperature,
and wind. Isotope measurements
indicate transpiration is the larger
component of evapotranspiration.[4]
Estimating
evapotranspiration
Evapotranspiration can be measured or
estimated using several methods.
Indirect methods …
Energy balance …
Eddy covariance …
Hydrometeorological equations …
ALEXI[8]
BAITSSS[9][10]
METRIC[11]
SEBAL[12]
SEBS[13]
