Abstract |
Water losses to the atmosphere from wetlands are a combination of evaporation and transpiration by emergent macrophytes. Wetland surfaces may be permanently or periodically saturated, with periods of shallow standing water. A variable fraction of the surface area may be occupied by open water. The soil surface may be bare or covered by a litter layer that forms an effective mulch.
