The spatial variability of actual evapotranspiration across the Amazon River Basin based on remote sensing products validated with flux towers

Abstract Actual evapotranspiration (ET) is a major component of the water balance. While several international flux measurement programs have been executed in the tropical rain forest of the Amazon, those measurements represent the evaporative process at a few selected sites only. The aim of this st...
