| Zusammenfassung |
| Evapotranspiration (ET) was estimated from 1981–2005 over Wushen County
located in the Mu Us Sandland, China, by applying the Advection-Aridity
model, which is based on the complementary relationship hypothesis. We used
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Advanced Very High
Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer
(MODIS), and meteorological data. Our results show that the estimated daily
ET was about 4.5% higher than measurements using an Eddy Covariance (EC)
system after forcing energy balance closure over an alfalfa field from 22
July 2004 to 23 August 2004. At a regional scale, the estimated monthly ET
was about 8.7% lower than measurements using the EC system after forcing
energy balance closure over an alfalfa field in August 2004. These results
were about 3.0% higher than ET measurements by microlysimeter over sand
dunes during June 1988. From 1981 to 2005, the average annual ET and
precipitation levels were 287 mm and 336 mm, respectively, in Wushen County.
The average annual ET varied from 230 mm in western parts of Wushen County
to 350 mm in eastern parts of the county. Both inter-annual and seasonal
variations in ET were substantial in Wushen County. The annual ET was
200–400 mm from 1981–2005, and the seasonal pattern of ET showed a single
peak distribution. The cumulative ET during the June–September 2004 period
was 250 mm, which was 87% of the total annual ET. The annual ET,
precipitation, and the maximum Normalized Difference Vegetation Index
(NDVImax) showed positive correlations temporally and spatially. |
