  text: 'Lake evaporation plays an important role in the water budget of lakes. Predicting
    lake evaporation responses to climate change is thus of paramount importance for
    the planning of mitigation and adaption strategies. However, most studies that
    have simulated climate change impacts on lake evaporation have typically utilised
    a single mechanistic model. Whilst such studies have merit, projected changes
    in lake evaporation from any single lake model can be considered uncertain. To
    better understand evaporation responses to climate change, a multi-model approach
    (i.e., where a range of projections are considered), is desirable. In this study,
    we present such multi-model analysis, where five lake models forced by four different
    climate model projections are used to simulate historic and future change (1901–2099)
    in lake evaporation. Our investigation, which focuses on sub-tropical Lake Kinneret
    (Israel), suggested considerable differences in simulated evaporation rates among
    the models, with the annual average evaporation rates varying between 1232 mm
    year−1 and 2608 mm year−1 during the historic period (1901–2005). We explored
    these differences by comparing the models with reference evaporation rates estimated
    using in-situ data (2000–2005) and a bulk aerodynamic algorithm. We found that
    the model ensemble generally captured the intra-annual variability in reference
    evaporation rates, and compared well at seasonal timescales (RMSEc = 0.19, R =
    0.92). Using the model ensemble, we then projected future change in evaporation
    rates under three different Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios:
    RCP 2.6, 6.0 and 8.5. Our projections indicated that, by the end of the 21st century
    (2070–2099), annual average evaporation rates would increase in Lake Kinneret
    by 9–22 % under RCPs 2.6–8.5. When compared with projected regional declines in
    precipitation, our projections suggested that the water balance of Lake Kinneret
    could experience a deficit of 14–40 % this century. We anticipate this substantial
    projected deficit combined with a considerable growth in population expected for
    this region could have considerable negative impacts on water availability and
    would consequently increase regional water stress.'
