Short summary
This study reveals the effects of groundwater-dependent evapotranspiration (GDE) in the shift of annual water balance for a catchment in the Budyko space. The ABCD model is modified to incorporate GDE in simulating the monthly hydrological behaviors of a catchment, and the results are aggregated to annual data. GDE enhances the occurrence of excess evapotranspiration (E / P > 1) in dry years, which could not be captured by the traditional Budyko curves. Six catchments are analyzed with the model.
