“…During the study period, variability of growing season ET rates at Pauciflora, Poplar, Saline and JACOS Fens were comparable to values F I G U R E 6 Mean daily ET (mm d −1 ) (a), total ET (mm) (b), coefficient of variation (%) for ET (c), precipitation -potential evapotranspiration (P/PET) ratio (d), precipitationtotal evapotranspiration (P/ETJ) ratio (e), actual evapotranspiration -potential evapotranspiration (ETJ/PET) ratio (f) in July at Pauciflora and Poplar Fens (2013-2018), Saline Fen (2015-2018) and JACOS Fen (2011-2014). *In 2016, more than 50% of data were missed at Saline Fen reported by other studies from WBP (e.g., Brown et al, 2010;Phillips et al, 2016). Overall, variability of growing season ET rates at four fen sites were characteristic of the WBP with the highest rates in June-July when the warmest T air and the highest R net and VPD were observed (Amiro et al, 2006;Baldocchi et al, 2000;Brown et al, 2010;Cienciala et al, 1998;Grelle et al, 1997;Lafleur et al, 1997;Phillips et al, 2016;Rouse, 2000 Kim & Verma, 1995;Lafleur et al, 1997).…”
