118 | "description": "Ecological condition continues to decline in | ||||
119 | arid and semi-arid river basins globally due to hydrological | ||||
120 | over-abstraction combined with changing climatic conditions. Whilst | ||||
121 | provision of water for the environment has been a primary approach to | ||||
122 | alleviate ecological decline, how to accurately monitor changes in | ||||
123 | riverine trees at fine spatial and temporal scales, remains a | ||||
124 | substantial challenge. This is further complicated by constantly | ||||
125 | changing water availability across expansive river basins with varying | ||||
126 | climatic zones. Within, we combine rare, fine-scale, high frequency | ||||
127 | temporal in-situ field collected data with machine learning and remote | ||||
128 | sensing, to provide a robust model that enables broadscale monitoring | ||||
129 | of physiological tree water stress response to environmental changes | ||||
130 | via actual evapotranspiration (ET). Physiological variation of | ||||
131 | Eucalyptus camaldulensis (River Red Gum) and E. largiflorens (Black | ||||
132 | Box) trees across 10 study locations in the southern Murray-Darling | ||||
133 | Basin, Australia, was captured instantaneously using sap flow sensors, | ||||
134 | substantially reducing tree response lags encountered by monitoring | ||||
135 | visual canopy changes. Actual ET measurement of both species was used | ||||
136 | to bias correct a national spatial ET product where a Random Forest | ||||
137 | model was trained using continuous timeseries of in-situ data of up to | ||||
138 | four years. Precise monthly AMLETT (Australia-wide Machine Learning ET | ||||
139 | for Trees) ET outputs in 30 m pixel resolution from 2012 to 2021, were | ||||
140 | derived by incorporating additional remote sensing layers such as soil | ||||
141 | moisture, land surface temperature, radiation and EVI and NDVI in the | ||||
142 | Random Forest model. Landsat and Sentinal-2 correlation results | ||||
143 | between in-situ ET and AMLETT ET returned R2 of 0.94 (RMSE 6.63 mm | ||||
144 | period\u22121) and 0.92 (RMSE 6.89 mm period\u22121), respectively. In | ||||
145 | comparison, correlation between in-situ ET and a national ET product | ||||
146 | returned R2 of 0.44 (RMSE 34.08 mm period\u22121) highlighting the | ||||
147 | need for bias correction to generate accurate absolute ET values. The | ||||
148 | AMLETT method presented here, enhances environmental management in | ||||
149 | river basins worldwide. Such robust broadscale monitoring can inform | ||||
150 | water accounting and importantly, assist decisions on where to | ||||
151 | prioritize water for the environment to restore and protect key | ||||
