Abstract Operational estimation of spatio-temporal continuously daily evapotranspiration (ET), and the components evaporation (E) and transpiration (T), at river basin scale is very useful for developing sustainable water resource strategies, particularly in regions of limited water supplies. In this study, multi-year all-weather daily ET, E and T were estimated using MODIS-based (Dual Temperature Difference) DTD model under different land covers in the Heihe river basin in China, with a total area of approximately 143 × 103 km2. The remotely sensed ET was validated using ground measurements from large aperture scintillometer systems, with a source area of several kilometers, over grassland, cropland and riparian shrub-forest land cover. The results showed that the remotely sensed ET produced mean absolute percent differences (MAPD) of around 20% with the ground measurements during the growing season under clear sky conditions, but the model performance deteriorated for cloudy days. However, the daily ET product gave reasonable estimates for croplands with an MAPD value of about 20% and the estimates of T/ET and E/ET in good agreement with ground measurements. The DTD model also significantly outperformed other remote sensing-based models being applied globally. Based on these results the DTD model is considered reliable for monitoring crop water use and stress and to develop efficient irrigation strategies.
