Abstract
We measured sensible and latent heat fluxes (H and λE) in five forests located in boreal, cool-temperate, and warm-temperate zones of the Far East concurrently over several years to clarify their energy-consumption characteristics and the variation in and factors controlling evapotranspiration. The consumption of energy for evapotranspiration was larger at the southern sites than at the northern sites, and evapotranspiration in summer (July-August) was larger (average 2.9 mm day
