摘要
Evaporation from open water surfaces is often estimated based on the pan evaporation (E-pan), which is an essential measure for estimating atmospheric evaporative demand. Within the Central European region, E-pan appears to be slightly underestimated in the case of the hydrological balance of water bodies. In the context of the recent multi-year period of drought, significant losses of surface water deposits were observed in countries of Central Europe. In spite of the 'evaporation paradox' phenomenon, E-pan is not generally decreasing as expected by many studies from past decades. Recorded observations from the Czech Republic show an increase in E-pan, which is associated with an increase in global radiation and vapor pressure deficit. The vast majority of meteorological stations show a strong or very strong increase in E-pan during April, June, July and August. During the 1971-2018 period, the annual mean E-pan has been increasing by an average of 2.97 mm yr(-1). For the period 2001-2018, the mean E-pan was 18% higher (519 mm) than the 1971-2000 average (440 mm). Our simulations of future scenarios, using regional climate models, predicted a growth in E-pan of up to 27-54%. Such an increase in evaporation would cause serious consequences for surface water availability and agricultural production during the periods of drought in the Czech Republic, as the drought period 2014-2018 has clearly demonstrated.
