Taiyuan basin is enclosed by hills and mountains, located in the middle of Shanxi province, standing between longitudes 111°40'–113°00'E and latitude 37°00'–38°00'N. With various types and wide distribution, the mineral resources are very abundant in this basin area. However, there is a great shortage of water resources. Due to continual fall of groundwater level caused by excessive extraction of ground water, some severe environmental problems are induced in this area, such as ground subsidence, etc. The goal of this paper is to estimate the spatial distribution of actual evaporation over the basin by using remote sensing data. The Surface Energy Balance System (SEBS) has been developed (Su, 2001, 2002). Using visible and infrared satellite remote sensing data, SEBS is based on land surface energy balance theory combined with the in-situ meteorological data or the product of atmospheric numerical model to estimate land surface turbulent flux and the relative evaporation at different scales. SEBS was served as the core methodology of this paper and was used for evaporation estimation. On the basis of hydro-geological data and NOAA satellite data, the SEBS was used in this paper for the estimation of actual evaporation of Taiyuan basin. The spatial distribution of the evaporative fraction and daily evaporation over the basin area was shown. On the other hand, the difference of land surface parameters and evaporation for various target types in the basin area was discussed.
