New Methods for Determining Lake Evaporation Loss
This article discusses a methodology for the computation of both pan and lake evaporation, developed by the Environmental Sciences Services Administration (ESSA) Weather Bureau. The methodology grew out of a comprehensive research project carried out cooperatively by a group of federal agencies in 1950‐51 at Lake Hefner in Oklahoma. After subjecting the procedure to exhaustive tests, the ESSA Weather Bureau decided to utilize it in an extensive study for computing lake evaporation in the United States for the ten year period of 1946‐55. The ESSA Weather Bureau study provides a highly useful picture of lake evaporation in the United States over a period of ten years. Subsequently, the Illinois Water Survey conducted a similar project designed to secure a picture of lake evaporation in that state, that would be more detailed and cover a longer period.
