Comparison of evapotranspiration estimates using the water balance and the eddy covariance methods

Abstract The eddy covariance method estimates the energy flux of latent heat for evapotranspiration. However, imbalance between the land surface energy output and input is a well‐known fact. Energy balance closure is most commonly not achieved, and therefore the eddy covariance method potentially un...
