Abstract
This paper presents firstly a systematic unified set of terms, definitions and symbols applicable in the title area. These are based largely on previous studies by a Working Group of the International Commission for Irrigation and Drainage. This is followed by a physical discussion of the evaporative process, employing as its main tools the principal formulae used in evaporation measurement. The latter are conveniently tabulated in the paper, using the recommended terminology. For maximum insight into evaporative behaviour under varying circumstances, attention is focussed on the combination-method formulae, which are used to create a general picture of the interactions between evaporation and the many other factors influencing it.
