Evapotranspiration is a general term for soil evaporation and plant transpiration, which refers to the total flux of water vapor transported by vegetation and the ground to the atmosphere. It mainly includes vegetation transpiration, soil water evaporation, and evaporation of intercepted precipitation or dew. As an important component of energy balance and water cycle, evapotranspiration not only affects plant growth and development and yield, but also affects atmospheric circulation, playing a role in regulating climate. This data is the evapotranspiration (ET) dataset of Gansu Province from 2000 to 2018, with a time resolution of 8 days, a data resolution of 1KM, and a data format of hdf.
The data is sourced from Evapotranspiration (ET) on the GLASS product launch website at the University of Maryland (version: V42)（ http://www.glass.umd.edu/download.html ）
GLASS ET product algorithm is based on the multi-model ensemble method, that is the Bayesian model averaging (BMA) method which merges five process-based ET algorithms to improve ET estimate.This dataset is GLASS ET's original product and is unprocessed.
The data quality is good.
