Answer:
There has been a large number of approaches used to attempt to reduce evaporation losses from surface of water bodies. Every scientific approach tries to affect one of the main factor described above: reduce the exposed surface; decrease the water temperature; decrease the wind effect; etc… Since the meteorological factors affecting evaporation cannot generally be controlled under normal conditions, the focus has been placed on suppressing evaporation by physical and chemical means. The effectiveness of each methods varies but some are far more efficient than others. These approaches include:
Undergroung water storage (naturel and artificial)
Chemical treatment with water Evapo retardants (WER)
Reduction of exposed water surface
Wind breakers
Floating covers on the water surface.
