Evapotranspiration plays a central role in the water balance of arid and semi-arid areas, as it
is the major loss flux. The spatial estimation of actual evapotranspiration is thus of critical …

We predict groundwater quality to ascertain suitability for drinking purposes in the City of
Harare, using a geostatistical approach. Forty-four (44) groundwater samples collected …

This paper demonstrates the application of TOPMODEL, a rainfall-runoff model to simulate
streamflow of Upper Save River catchment of Zimbabwe based on 2003–2007 …

Ground heat flux is an important component of the energy balance in bare soils or sparsely
vegetated areas. This study presents the results of a validation experiment of a remote …

An overestimation of evapotranspiration obtained by remote sensing approach has been
found in earlier studies in Sardon. This problem is more general: it occurs in similar areas …

Spatial and temporal variation of dry season subsurface water fluxes in granitic La Mata
catchment in Spain, ̃5km2 has been assessed using a coupled HYDRUS-MODFLOW model …

The AA model was tested with both daily and half hourly data for the relatively wet and dry
condition in Sardon, Spain. The wind function which was applied to the AA model was …

Actual evapotranspiration and rainfall are the key elements in water balance estimation that
give scientifically sound information on water availability. Currently, satellite remote sensing …

Direct methods are effective for estimating transpiration in areas where the water balance
and vegetation characteristics are highly variable. Usually, transpiration is calculated as a …

An eddy covariance system including an open-path methane analyzer (LI-7700) has been
used to measure methane fluxes from a deep fresh water lake situated in the Rhine river …
