Summary

Evapotranspiration measurements were made by the U.S. Geological Survey at the Starkey pasture climate station as part of a study that began April 2003 and ended April 2016. The metadata describe a table of the characteristics of the vegetation at the site from field visits, in comma-delimited format.

Purpose

Data were collected to quantify evapotranspiration over a representative land cover (unimproved pasture) in west-central Florida. Evapotranspiration is a large but not-well quantified component of local and regional water budgets. Water budgets and models that use this improved estimate of evapotranspiration should provide more accurate predictions of effects on water resources attributable to changes in water use, land use, normal climate cycles, and long-term climate change. The full data release associated with this site consists of: 1. Starkey evapotranspiration, 30-minute data, from January 2010 through April 2016 (comma delimited text format) 2. Starkey evapotranspiration, daily data, from January 2010 through April 2016 (comma delimited text format) 3. Starkey evapotranspiration, monthly data, from May 2003 through April 2016 (comma delimited text format) 4. Ancillary files: Station analysis (pdf), Vegetation table (comma delimited text format), Vegetation photographs (pdf), and Equipment photographs (pdf). This metadata file corresponds to ancillary files to the data, item 4.
