  • Pan evaporation (Epan) is an important indicator of water and energy balance. Despite global warming, decreasing annual Epan has been reported across different continents over last decades, which is claimed as pan evaporation paradox. However, such trend is not necessarily found in seasonal data because the level of contributions on Epan vary among meteorological components. This study investigates long-term trend in seasonal pan evaporation from 1908 to 2016 across South Korea. Meteorological variables including air temperature (Tair), wind speed (U), vapor pressure deficit (VPD), and solar radiation (Rs) are selected to quantify the effects of individual contributing factor to Epan. We found overall decreasing trend in Epan, which agrees with earlier studies. However, mixed tendencies between seasons due to variation of dominant factor contributing Epan were found. We also evaluated the reference evapotranspiration based on Penman-Monteith method and compared this with Epan to better understand the physics behind the evaporation paradox.

  • 지난 수십 년 동안, 변화하는 기후를 이해하기 위해 많은 연구가 있었고, 여러 기후 변량의 변화추세가 발견되었다. 이들 추세를 설명하기는 쉽지 않고, 때로는 서로 모순적으로 보여지기도 한다. 다양한 기후 변량의 변화추세를 일반적으로 설명하기 위한 가설을 제시하기 위해 많은 시도도 있었다. 어느 정도 지식이 축적된 이 시점에서, 우리 시대에 진행되는 기후 변화에 대해 우리가 알고 있는 것을 되돌아보고 신중히 정리해볼 필요가 있다. 여기서는 기온, 일사량, 풍속, 증발, 강수에 초점을 맞추어 변화하는 기후에 대해 우리가 얻은 지식을 종합적으로 살펴보고자 한다. 온난화, 흐려짐, 잔잔하기로 대변되는 주요 변화추세 및 증발의 역설, 강수 변동성의 증가를 서울 지점 자료를 예시로 들어 설명한다. 이러한 변화에 대한 이해를 근거로 수문학자와 공학자들에게 네 가지 함의를 제시하려 한다.

  • Basin evapotranspiration is the result of water balance and energy balance, which is affected by climate and underlying surface characteristics, the process is complex, and spatial and temporal variability is large, the evapotranspiration estimation of river basin is an important but difficult problem in the field of hydrology, over the years, many scholars devoted to the basin actual evapotranspiration estimation and achieved excellent results. We discuss Budyko coupled water-energy balance theory and evaporation paradox, then use the Fu's equation to estimate actual evapotranspiration yearly in different areas with different dryness. The result shows that Fu's equation has high precision for estimating evapotranspiration yearly in our selected study area, and the estimation result has higher precision in the area with high dryness. Then, we propose an improved formula which can be used to estimate actual evapotranspiration monthly. Furthermore, we found that the parameter in the formula reflects general conditions of underlying surface and it is affected by several factors, at last, we tried to propose the calculation formula. The study indicates that Fu's equation provides a reliable method for evapotranspiration estimation in dry regions as well as semi-humid and semi-arid regions, which has great significance for forecasting river basin water resources and inquiring into ecological water requirement.
