11 Methodology for global implementation MODIS data temporally-filling gaps with contamination or missing 1.00 X1.25 GMAO meteorology data spatially interpolated GMAO data to MODIS pixels
12 Average Annual MODIS ET
13 Climatological Zonal Mean of Global Annual ET
14 Histogram of Global Annual Evapotranspiration Total global annual ET: km 3 Reported total global annual ET: km 3 (Oki & Kanae, 2006) Average MODIS ET over vegetated land surface : 568 ± 378 mm yr -1 Average precipitation: around 750 mm yr -1 Actual ET over the global land surface: around 750*60%=450mm yr -1 Barren/deserts take up 24% of the Earth's land surface MODIS ET over the entire land surface: 568*(100-24)/100= mm yr -1
15 Average Annual Precipitation

37 Conclusions Global terrestrial annual total ET ( km 3 ) agrees with reported km 3. MODIS ET can explain 84% of the variations of the pseudo ET measurements at the 234 watersheds. Daily MODIS ET compares favorably with flux tower measurements (ET OBS): tower-driven GMAO-driven MAE: 0.33mm/d 0.31mm/d 24.6% 24.1% (in the 10-30% range of the accuracy of ET OBS) R:
