*3.4. Water Budgets*

Regarding the water budgets of each land cover case study examined, the following can be stated. The actual evapotranspiration at Spercheios river basin ranged in the three land cover case studies examined from 74.9% (LC1960), through 70.9% (LC1990), to 72.8% (LC2018). Baseflow to river ranged from 16.7% (LC1960), through 19.2% (LC1990), to 18.1% (LC2018). Storage change ranged from 11.6% (LC1960), through 13.3% (LC1990), to 12.4% (LC2018) (Figure 15).
