Potential evapotranspiration (PET), is the evaporation and transpiration that potentially could occur if a field of the crop had an ideal unlimited water supply. RET is the reference ET often denoted as ET 0 .
The Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) is a multiscalar drought index based on climatic data. It was developed by Vicente-Serrano et al. (2010) at the Institute Pirenaico de Ecologia in Zaragoza, Spain . [ 1 ]
Evapotranspiration and biomass production are key indicators for water management and irrigation performance. [ 4 ] The combination of the energy balance with input from remote sensing data is applied by farmers, [ 5 ] irrigation districts, [ 6 ] catchment management agencies [ 7 ] and regional and national governments.
In 1948, C. W. Thornthwaite proposed an AI defined as: = where the water deficiency is calculated as the sum of the monthly differences between precipitation and potential evapotranspiration for those months when the normal precipitation is less than the normal evapotranspiration; and where stands for the sum of monthly values of potential evapotranspiration for the deficient months (after ...
Monthly estimated potential evapotranspiration and measured pan evaporation for two locations in Hawaii, Hilo and Pahala. Potential evapotranspiration is usually measured indirectly, from other climatic factors, but also depends on the surface type, such as free water (for lakes and oceans), the soil type for bare soil, and also the density and diversity of vegetation.
A natural process often called "corn sweat" worsened a heat dome in the Midwest this week by fueling high humidity levels.
The coefficients 0.408 and 900 are not unitless but account for the conversion from energy values to equivalent water depths: radiation [mm day −1] = 0.408 radiation [MJ m −2 day −1]. This reference evapotranspiration ET 0 can then be used to evaluate the evapotranspiration rate ET from unstressed plants through crop coefficients K c: ET ...
