Evapotranspiration (ET) is the sum of evaporation and plant transpiration from the Earth`s land and ocean surface to the atmosphere. Evaporation accounts for the movement of water to the air from sources such as the soil, canopy interception, and waterbodies. Transpiration accounts for the movement of water within a plant and the subsequent loss ....
