Abstract
Transpiration and evaporation in a maize field were measured by porome ter, lysimeter and Bowen ratio techniques. All methods provide corresp onding and complementary data for daily evaporation sums. It is propos ed to use these techniques simultaneously in order to estimate reliabl y the partitioning of evaporation between plants and soil.
