It is recognized that there are differences among different ET products, but it is not known what the range of this difference is and to what extent it impacts on water resources and ecosystem management. In this study, we assess the effects of value differences of five representative ET products on water resources and ecosystem management in the Murrumbidgee River catchment in Australia. The results show there are obvious differences in the annual and monthly ET values among these five ET products, which lead to huge differences on the estimations of mean annual runoff, soil water storage changes, and yearly irrigation water per area. Meanwhile, they result in different relationships between the annual gross primary productivity and ET and different water-use efficiency values for both forest and grassland, but the influence of ET variations on forest is less obvious than on grassland. The effects of the variations among the ET products on water resources and ecosystem management are remarkable and need to be the subject of more attention.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs11080958","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,22]],"date-time":"2019-04-22T11:02:53Z","timestamp":1555930973000},"page":"958","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Differences among Evapotranspiration Products Affect Water Resources and Ecosystem Management in an Australian Catchment"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9954-9321","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhixiang","family":"Lu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Ecohydrology of Inland River Basin, Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lanzhou 730000, China"},{"name":"School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane 4067, Australia"}]},{"given":"Yan","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane 4067, Australia"},{"name":"Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"}]},{"given":"Yongping","family":"Wei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, The University of Queensland, Brisbane 4067, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5469-1738","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qi","family":"Feng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Ecohydrology of Inland River Basin, Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lanzhou 730000, China"}]},{"given":"Jiali","family":"Xie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Desert and Desertification, Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lanzhou 730000, China"},{"name":"University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"712","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1200488","article-title":"The future of seawater desalination: Energy, technology, and the environment","volume":"333","author":"Elimelech","year":"2011","journal-title":"Science"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1029\/2011JD017037","article-title":"Validation of remotely sensed evapotranspiration over the Hai River Basin, China","volume":"117","author":"Jia","year":"2012","journal-title":"J.
