Simulation and partition evapotranspiration for the representative landform-soil-vegetation formations in Horqin Sandy Land, China

Quantifying evapotranspiration (ET) and its components are particularly crucial to reveal the eco-hydrological processes in arid and semi-arid regions, such as the Horqin Sandy Land in China, but is lacking in existing literature. This study applied the Shuttleworth-Wallace (S-W) model to simulate and partition the ET at the representative landform-soil-vegetation formations (i.e., mobile dune, semi-fixed dune, and fixed dune) in Horqin Sandy...
