Interannual variations of evapotranspiration and its response to different drought types in a boreal larch forest in China by Zhipeng Xu, Xiuling Man, Yiping Hou, Tijiu Cai, Liangliang Duan

“…Interestingly, the precipitation regime with larger rainfall events (> 15 mm/day) was mostly related to the IAV of ET. These findings enhance our understanding of the responses of ET to multiple drought types and the intricate relationship between ET and P, highlighting that precipitation patterns due to climate change could potentially increase the complexity of environmental control on ET variations in boreal forests.…”
