“…While some models predicted that FPV covering 10% of the recipient water body can lead to a reduction in evaporation ranging from 7% to 19% [41], other simulations predicted that 20% cover can lead to a reduction of about 62% on water evaporation. DO was also expected to decrease under FPV [34,37,46]. Additionally, FPV was predicted to induce changes in temperature and stratification patterns with the intensity of these changes being dependent on FPV cover [18,31,34,37,[46][47][48].…”
