Short summary
Evapotranspiration is evaporation that occurs from plants, soil, and water bodies, but determining these components is difficult. We developed a new method that uses measurements such as streamflow and rainfall to determine the portion of plant evaporation. We found differences among vegetation types and climate conditions, and showed that plant water use peaks in moderately dry regions. The results improve understanding of plant-water interactions and can help improve water and climate models.
