Fixed versus Variable Bulk Canopy Resistance for Reference 1 Evapotranspiration Estimation Using the Penman - Monteith 2 Equation under Semiarid Conditions

Impact of model structure and parameterization on Penman–Monteith type evaporation models

The impact ofmodel structure andparameterization on the estimation of evaporation is investigated across a range of Penman–Monteith type models. To examine the role of model structure on flux retrievals, three different retrieval schemes are compared. The schemes include a traditional single-source Penman– Monteith model (Monteith, 1965), a two-layer model based on Shuttleworth and Wallace (198...

Estimating Daily Global Evapotranspiration Using Penman-Monteith Equation and Remotely Sensed Land Surface Temperature

Daily evapotranspiration (ET) is modeled globally for the period 2000–2013 based on the Penman–Monteith equation with radiation and vapor pressures derived using remotely sensed Land Surface Temperature (LST) from the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua and Terra satellites. The ET for a given land area is based on four surface conditions: wet/dry and vegetated/non...

Comparing the Penman - Monteith equation and a modified 1 Jarvis - Stewart model with an artificial neural network to 2 estimate stand - scale transpiration and canopy conductance 3

17 18 The responses of canopy conductance to variation in solar radiation, vapour pressure deficit and soil 19 moisture have been extensively modelled using a Jarvis-Stewart (JS) model. Modelled canopy 20 conductance has then often been used to predict transpiration using the Penman-Monteith (PM) 21 model. We previously suggested an alternative approach in which the JS model is modified to 22

Combining the Penman-Monteith equation with measurements of surface temperature and reflectance to estimate evaporation rates of semiarid grassland

The Penman-Monteith equation is useful for computing evaporation rates of uniform surfaces, such as dense vegetation or bare soil. This equation becomes less useful for evaluation of evaporation rates at the regional scale, where surfaces are generally characterized by a patchy combination of vegetation and soil. This is particularly true in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world. The appr...
