Abstract:Abstract. In this paper, the influence of spatial resolution on the precision of estimates was analyzed through evapotranspiration (ET hereafter) modeling over a typical oasis in northwestern China by using the Landsat-TM and MODIS data. A relatively high consistency was observed between the TM-based latent heat flux and daily ET estimates and in-situ measurements, with relative errors of 9.7% and 8.8%, respectively. Despite lower precision of the relative errors of 22.4% and 17.0%, respectively, the MODIS-bas… Show more
