Water Budget Parameters [Flux Terms] P = E + T + Q + GWr - GWd GWr - GWd = 0 at steady state. P = precipitation E = evaporation T = transpiration Q = surface runoff GWr = groundwater recharge GWd = groundwater discharge E + T often "lumped" as ET ET = evapotranspiration ET is proportional to pan evaporation (or "potential" evaporation).
Water Budget Parameters: Examples [Flux Units] Hudson River River Murray (SE Australia) P (mm/yr) 1100 450 Pan Evap (mm/yr) 760 >2000 Q (mm/yr) ~600 ~20 ET (mm/yr) ~500 430 (by difference) ET ~ P - Q Therefore: Pan evap can greatly exceed ET actual, especially in arid and semi-arid climates.
