Cumulative ET for each year of 2003–2010 respectively (panel a); cumulative ET averaged over the observation periods and its standard deviation (black line) and monthly variations in standard deviation (red line and the axis on right) (panel b).

Cumulative precipitation versus average air temperature of the whole year and the growing season (April–October) during the period 1989–2010.
<p>For the period of 2003–2010, the size of black dot is approximately proportional to the ET amount. The two-digit numbers (YY) denote the years from 2003 to 2010 (20YY). Dotted lines represent the averages over the 20 year period.</p

Yearly values of cumulative ET calculated through different approaches: V<sub>cli-eco</sub> (for variable climate and variable ecosystem responses); V<sub>cli</sub> (for variable climate); V<sub>eco</sub> (for variable ecosystem responses).
<p>The correlation coefficients of the cumulative values calculated with the three approaches are also reported.</p
Annual accumulated ET, R<sub>n</sub>, P and annual averaged T<sub>a</sub> during 2003–2010.

Correlation coefficients between annual ET and climatic drivers (R<sub>n</sub>, T<sub>a</sub>, P, SW and VPD).
<p>Correlograms were calculated by shifting the climatic driver backward one month at a time. The open signs represent that the coefficients are not significant while the closed signs mean significant (p<0.05).</p
Correlation coefficients (R) between ET and some of the climatic drivers (R<sub>n</sub>, T<sub>a</sub> and VPD) at monthly and annual scale (p represents the probability-value).

Multi-year (2003–2010) environmental conditions accumulated or averaged monthly: (a) net radiation (R<sub>n</sub>); (b) precipitation (P); (c) air temperature (T<sub>a</sub>); (d) soil water contents (SW) at 5 cm; (e) vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and (f) ET.
<p>The error bars represent the standard deviation.</p
