A site-level comparison of lysimeter and eddy covariance flux measurements of evapotranspiration

Accurate measurements of evapotranspiration are required for many meteorological, climatological, ecological, and hydrological research applications and developments. Here we examine and compare two well-established methods to determine evapotranspiration at the site level: lysimeter-based measureme...
