What is evapotranspiration? …as defined by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
If you search for the definition of evapotranspiration, you will find that it varies. In general, evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and transpiration. Some definitions include evaporation from surface-water bodies, even the oceans. But, since we have a Web page just about evaporation, our definition of evapotranspiration will not include evaporation from surface water. Here, evapotranspiration is defined as the water lost to the atmosphere from the ground surface, evaporation from the capillary fringe of the groundwater table, and the transpiration of groundwater by plants whose roots tap the capillary fringe of the groundwater table.
I got the thought that we have finally reached the tipping point
of killing off all of our vegetation’s…
Maybe not in my lifetime yet with our path we have chosen
with chemically raised food… well eventually …
How you ask… well you need to put on your thinking caps for a second
and close your eyes and imagine your mind’s eye
travelling from coast to coast
with what is about to take place on all of acres being planted on FARMLAND…
Well think about the gozillion gallons of water mixed Glyphosate
being spread everywhere.
YEAR AFTER YEAR! EVERY SRPING!
Now think about this word…
