Illinois researchers develop an AI model to reduce uncertainty in evapotranspiration prediction
College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois Urbana-ChampaignEvapotranspiration (ET) includes evaporation from soil and open water pools such as lakes, rivers, and ponds, as well as transpiration from plant leaves. The difference between precipitation and ET indicates the water balance available for societal needs, including agricultural and industrial production. However, measuring ET is challenging.
