## Abstract Evaluating performances of four commonly used evaporation estimate methods, namely; Bowen ratio energy balance (BREB), mass transfer (MT), PriestleyβTaylor (PT) and pan evaporation (PE), based on 4 years experimental data, the most effective and the reliable evaporation estimates model
## Abstract A typical agricultural water reservoir (AWR) of 2400 m^2^ area and 5 m depth, located in a semiβarid area (southern Spain), was surveyed on a daily basis for 1 year. The annual evaporation flux was 102Β·7 W m^β2^, equivalent to an evaporated water depth of 1310 mm year^β1^. The heat stor
