✦ Synopsis

Evapotranspiration in a grassland area was estimated by the energy balance method and by the Penman combination model. An equation of the form A = P(ln D) a was obtained for estimating actual evapotranspiration when the potential rate and the number of days following a period of significant wetting is known. Evapotranspiration declined from the potential rate as soil moisture decreased. The Bowen ratio was used to indicate evaporative stress as the summer advanced. The ratio showed a strong negative correlation with rainfall.

Monthly actual evapotranspiration (AET) for four humid catchments in Kenya, East Africa was evaluated using the Morton and Grindley models. The area of each catchment was less then 100 km 2 and all catchments lie around the equator. Three of the catchments are chieΒ―y vegetated with pasture, annual a
