摘要

As a typical inland river basin, Heihe River basin has been experiencing severe water resource competition between different land cover types, especially in the middle stream and downstream areas. Terrestrial actual evapotranspiration (ETa), including evaporation from soil and water surfaces, evaporation of rainfall interception, transpiration of vegetation canopy and sublimation of snow and glaciers, is an important component of the water cycle in the Heihe River basin. We developed a hybrid remotely sensed ETa estimation model named ETMonitor to estimate the daily actual evapotranspiration of the Heihe River basin for the years 2009-2011 at a spatial resolution of 1 km. The model was forced by a variety of biophysical parameters derived from microwave and optical remote sensing observations. The estimated ETa was evaluated using eddy covariance (EC) flux observations at local scale and compared with the annual precipitation and the MODIS ETa product (MOD16) at regional scale. The spatial distribution and the seasonal variation of the estimated ETa were analyzed. The results indicate that the estimated ETa shows reasonable spatial and temporal patterns with respect to the diverse cold and arid landscapes in the upstream, middle stream and downstream regions, and is useful for various applications to improve the rational allocation of water resources in the Heihe River basin.
