slide1. Evaporation and Transpiration Evapotranspiration or ET 62% of precipitation that falls on the continents is evaporated
Understanding and predicting climate change
Q=P-ET. P-ET is the water available for use
ET "loss" supports ecosystems and agriculture
Reservoir losses
The antecedent "wetness" that determines what happens to runoff depends on ET
Even during a single storm ET may exceed runoff<br>
slide2. Learning Objectives Be able to calculate incoming solar radiation as a driver of evaporation and snowmelt based on of geographic location (latitude and longitude), date, time of day and atmospheric conditions
Be able to calculate evaporation from open water surfaces and transpiration from vegetation, using a method appropriate for the information available.<br>

slide4. Physical principles used Conservation of mass
Conservation of energy
Ideal gas law as it pertains to water vapor
Latent heat of phase change (vaporization)
Turbulent transfer near the ground<br>
slide5. Factors affecting ET Energy available for phase change
Solar Radiation
Surface energy balance
Water available at surface to evaporate or in root zone to transpire
"Dryness" of the air – saturation vapor deficit
Capacity of the atmosphere to transport away evaporated moisture. (wind speed, turbulence, diffusion).<br>

slide10. Shortwave Radiation at a Point Extraterrestrial radiation So is a function of date (season) time, latitude, slope and aspect.
St at surface is So modified by absorption by atmospheric gases, particularly water vapor, through scattering by air molecules and dust particles, and additionally by clouds when they are present.
Net shortwave takes into account losses after reflection (albedo) Sn = St(1-) as – fraction of So on overcast days (n=0)
as+bs – fraction of So on clear days
n/N – (1 - cloudiness fraction) n – bright sunshine hours per day
N – total day length
