Evaporation suppression from water reservoirs: Efficiency considerations of partial covers

S. Assouline, Kfir Narkis, Dani Or · Water Resources Research (2011)

Key finding (our summary)

Analyses the efficiency of partial covers, showing why suppression does not scale linearly with covered area because uncovered water and edges evaporate faster.

Explains the diminishing-returns physics behind partial coverage — essential for honest performance claims.
