Tracer measurement of river evaporation : laboratory study / by Y.L. Lau. : En36-522/98-1976E-PDF
"Experiments were performed in a small wind tunnel in which the wind blew over a basin of water containing tritium. The evaporation rates for water vapour and tritium were measured. The results show that the wind function for water evaporation and that for tritium evaporation were affected to about the same degree by turbulence in the air. However, turbulence in the water greatly increased the tritium evaporation but not the water evaporation rate. The application of the laboratory measurements to the development of a method For measuring river evaporation is discussed"--Abstract.
