abstract = "{In this study, a Bayesian-based three-cornered hat (BTCH) method is
developed to improve the estimation of terrestrial
evapotranspiration (ET) by integrating multisource ET products
without using any a priori knowledge. Ten long-term (30 years)
gridded ET datasets from statistical or empirical, remotely-
sensed, and land surface models over contiguous United States
(CONUS) are integrated by the BTCH and ensemble mean (EM)
methods. ET observations from eddy covariance towers (ET$_{EC}$)
at AmeriFlux sites and ET values from the water balance method
(ET$_{WB}$) are used to evaluate the BTCH- and EM-integrated ET
estimates. Results indicate that BTCH performs better than EM
and all the individual parent products. Moreover, the trend of
BTCH-integrated ET estimates, and their influential factors
(e.g., air temperature, normalized differential vegetation
index, and precipitation) from 1982 to 2011 are analyzed by the
Mann-Kendall method. Finally, the 30-year (1982 to 2011) total
water storage anomaly (TWSA) in the Mississippi River Basin
(MRB) is retrieved based on the BTCH-integrated ET estimates.
The TWSA retrievals in this study agree well with those from the
Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE).}",
