Actual Evapotranspiration in the High Andean Grasslands: A Comparison of Measurement and Estimation Methods
Actual evapotranspiration (ETa) explains the exchange of water and energy between soil, land surface, and atmosphere. Despite its importance, it remains difficult to measure directly. Grasslands represent a widespread ecosystem for which further assessment of the measurement and estimation of ETa is...
