Evapotranspiration from Wetland and Open-Water Sites at Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, 2008–2010


Table 12. Comparison of 3-year study period averages with 11-year averages of solar radiation, precipitation, and air temperature. 


[The 3-year period is synthesized from the actual May 1, 2008–September 29, 2010 study period, supplemented with data from January 1, 2009–April 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009–December 31, 2009, to be consistent with synthesized 3-yr evapotranspiration (ET) values given in table 11. Solar radiation and air temperature data are from the Agency Lake (AGKO) weather station, and precipitation data are from the Klamath Falls (KFLO) weather station. Abbreviations: mm yr -1 , millimeters per year; W m -2 , watts per square meter; °C, degrees Celsius]
