La difficulté d'accéder à la mesure directe de l'évaporation d'une surface d'eau a conduit à l'utilisation d'appareils constitués d'un bac, d'un bassin ou d'une cuve de profondeur variable et d'assez grande surface, dans lesquels on mesure l'abaissement du niveau de l'eau sous l'action de l'évaporation. On peut citer : 1) Les bacs d'évaporation sur charpente dont le type est celui dit «de classe A» [...] 2) Les bacs d'évaporation enterrés dont le type est celui dit «Colorado» [...] 3) Le bac BPI (Bureau of Plant Industry/U.S.D.A.), [...] Il est cylindrique, en tôle galvanisée non peinte, et mesure six pieds (182,8 cm) de diamètre avec une profondeur de 24 pouces (61 cm). 4) Les bacs flottants dont le type est celui de l'Institut de Géologie des États-Unis. 2, record 5, French, - bac%20d%27%C3%A9vaporation%20BPI
