abstract = "This article discusses seasonal and interannual variations of the
evapotranspiration (ET) rates in Bananal Island floodplain,
Brazil. Measurements included ET and sensible heat flux using the
eddy covariance method, atmospheric forcings (net radiation, Rn,
vapor pressure deficit, VPD, wind speed and air temperature), soil
moisture profiles, groundwater level and flood height, taken from
November 2003 to December 2006. For the hydrological years
(October-September) of 2003/2004, 2004/2005 and 2005/2006, the
accumulated precipitation was 1692, 1471, 1914 mm and the
accumulated ET was 1361, 1318 and 1317 mm, respectively. Seasonal
analyses indicated that ET decreased in the dry season (average
3.7 mm day1), despite the simultaneous increase in Rn, air
temperature and VPD. The increase of ET in the wet season and
particularly in the flood period (average 4.1 mm day1) showed that
the free water surface evaporation strongly influenced the energy
exchange. Soil moisture, which was substantially depleted during
the dry season, and adaptative vegetation mechanisms such as leaf
senescence contributed to limit the dry season ET. Strong drainage
within permeable sandy soils helped to explain the soil moisture
depletion. These results suggest that the Bananal flooding area
shows a different pattern in relation to the upland Amazon
forests, being more similar to the savanna strictu senso areas in
central Brazil. For example, seasonal ET variation was not in
phase with Rn; the wet season ET was higher than the dry season
ET; and the system stored only a tiny memory of the flooding
period, being sensitive to extended drought periods.",
