Abstract

Terrestrial evapotranspiration(ET) is essential to the global hydrological cycle and climate systems.A nonparametric evapotranspiration approach based on Hamilton principle was verified in Heihe river basin.This approach can estimate ET without parameterization of the surface transfer coefficients,and need not to go into detailed micro-processes for complex ET.Furthermore,all the associated variables are measurable,so this approach can avoid the complicated parametric process of other models,and reduce the uncertainty in the process of calculation.At present,nonparametric ET approach was verified only in a few sites.There is no sufficient research on the applicability of this approach in other ecosystems and the regional scale.The applicability of the nonparametric approach in different underlying surface and different seasons were analyzed.The results show that the nonparametric approach will underestimate the ET in humid area and overestimate ET in arid area.Sensitivity analysis show that net radiation has the great impact on the result of the nonparametric approachin humid areas,but in arid area,land surface temperature is also a significantly sensitive parameter.The regional ET over the Heihe river basin was calculated using nonparametric approach combined with remote sensing data and atmospheric driven data,and validated the results against ground based flux measurements.And then the applicability of the nonparametric approach in regional ET was analyzed.The nonparametric approach results can reflect the surface flux distribution characteristics of this region,but there were some errors compared with the ground based flux measurements.The root mean square errors were range 50 to 100 W·m-2 over different land cover types.
