Evapotranspiration in the Nile Basin: Identifying Dynamics and Drivers, 2002–2011
Analysis of the relationship between evapotranspiration (ET) and its natural and anthropogenic drivers is critical in water-limited basins such as the Nile. The spatiotemporal relationships of ET with rainfall and vegetation dynamics in the Nile Basin during 2002–2011 were analyzed using satellite-derived data. Non-parametric statistics were used to quantify ET-rainfall interactions and trends ...
متن کاملComparison of different empirical methods for estimating ddaily reference evapotranspiration in the humid cold climate (case study: Borujen, Shahrekord, Koohrang and Lordegan)
The proposed method for calculation of potential evapotranspiration is Penman-Monteith FAO method, but there are other methods that require less meteorological data but estimates close to the FAO Penman-Monteith method in different climatic conditions. Performance evaluation of these methods on the same basis is prerequisite for selecting an alternative approach in accordance with available da...
متن کاملEnvironmental controls on seasonal ecosystem evapotranspiration/ potential evapotranspiration ratio as determined by the global eddy flux measurements
The evapotranspiration / potential evapotranspiration (AET /PET) ratio is traditionally termed as the crop coefficient (Kc) and has been generally used as ecosystem evaporative stress index. In the current hydrology literature, Kc has been widely used as a parameter to estimate crop water demand by water managers but has not been well examined for other types of ecosystems such as forests and o...
متن کاملIntroducing the improved Forest Canopy density (FCD) model for frequent assessment of Hyrcanian forest
Mapping of forest extent is a prerequisite to acquire quantitative and qualitative information about forests and to formulate management and conservation strategies. forest canopy density (FCD) model is one of the useful RS methods for forest mapping using satellite images. One of the most serious challenges in FCD model is the weakness in the calculation of canopy density in low density forest...
متن کاملSoil Organic Carbon Stocks and Nitrogen Content Comparison in Different Slope Positions in Native Grasslands and Adjacent Cultivated Soils (Case Study: Kermanshah Mountain Rangelands, Iran)
Global warming has been largely driven by increasing atmospheric GHG (Green House Gasses), particularly carbon dioxide caused by fossil fuels burning. The current trend can not be stopped except by reducing fossil fuel consumption or storing organic carbon in soil or earthchr('39')s biological systems such as forests, rangelands and agricultural systems. This study was conducted to determine th...
