PA and Epan RH and Epan R and Epan Distribution of partial correlation coefficient between pan evaporation and meteorological variables
TR and Epan TA and Epan SD and Epan Distribution of partial correlation coefficient between pan evaporation and meteorological variables
CONCLUSIONS ☺In spite of the climate warming in recent decades, but Epan have increase in some areas, while decreased in other areas in upper reach of Yangtze River. ☺Increase in Epan is strongly related to increased air temperature (TA), decreased air pressure (PA) and decreased relative humidity (RH). ☺Decrease in Epan is significantly correlated withincreased relative humidity (RH), rainfall (R), air pressure (PA) and decreased sunshine duration (SD).
