Evapotranspiration (ET) refers to the combined processes that moves water from the Earth's surface (open water and ice surfaces, bare soil and vegetation) into the atmosphere including both evaporation and transpiration. Evapotranspiration is an important part of the local water cycle and climate, and measurement of it plays a key role in water resource management and agricultural irrigation.
