Table 14. Mean growing season, non-growing season, and annual evapotranspiration (ET) of Tule Lake NWR fallowed cropland during 2000, and Upper Klamath Lake NWR wetland during 2008–2010, in meters. 


[Fallowed cropland growing-season ET is from Bidlake (2002). Wetland ET measured using eddy covariance method (this study). Non-growing season fallowed cropland ET assumed equal to wetland ET during the same time of year. Annual ET is the sum of growing season and non-growing season ET.
