The authors express their appreciation to National Park Service (NPS) for allowing access to the study site, and to the many NPS staff who provided assistance on various tasks—usually on very short notice. The authors thank David I. Stannard of the U.S. Geological Survey for graciously providing technical guidance when requested. The authors also thank William D. Nichols (recently deceased) of the U.S. Geological Survey who tirelessly mentored project personnel on the application of evapotranspiration theory and instrumentation in the desert environments of Nevada and California. Lastly, the authors thank the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe for endorsing and supporting this effort and for allowing entry onto sacred lands.
