From the Proceedings of the 1983 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Assn. and the Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science - April 16, 1983, Flagstaff, Arizona / A discrete form of the water balance equation is used to illustrate the interaction among precipitation, runoff, percolation below the root zone, bare soil evaporation, plant transpiration, and plant available soil moisture. Under rangeland conditions, water availability is often the limiting factor in plant survival and growth. Therefore, the water balance equation is used, together with soils data and water use efficiency factors, to estimate annual aboveground net primary production of perennial vegetation.
