abstract in recent years, automatic weather stations have been widely used for recording meteorological data in different time scales. therefore the accurate estimation of eto by combination equations can be evaluated using these set of short time scales data. daily eto can also be calculated by summation of hourly eto values. the purpose of this study is to compare the eto values estimated by ...

an accurate determination of evapotranspiration is required for many studies that involve estimation of the water balance. one methodology is the use of lysimeters. considering the semiarid climate of kerman province, in southeastern parts of iran, the only operating electronic weighing lysimeter in the country was used for calculating daily eto from april 2004 to march 2005 in three different ...

Estimated daily reference crop evapotranspiration (ETo) is normally used to determine the water requirement of crops using the crop factor method. Many ETo estimation methods have been developed for different types of climatic data, and the accuracy of these methods varies with climatic conditions. In this study, pair−wise comparisons were made between daily ETo estimated from eight different E...

It is often necessary to find a simpler method in different climatic regions to calculate reference crop evapotranspiration (ETo) since the application of the FAO-56 Penman-Monteith method is often restricted due to the unavailability of a comprehensive weather dataset. Seven ETo methods, namely the standard FAO-56 Penman-Monteith, the FAO-24 Radiation, FAO-24 Blaney Criddle, 1985 Hargreaves, P...

ABSTRACT-Different evapotranspiration (ET) estimation equations having different accuracy with different conditions have been developed for ET estimation. This study will firstly focus on the estimation of 13 climatic equations of daily garlic ET estimation whose  ET is measured by lysimeter to provide information which can be helpful in selecting an appropriate ET equation. The paper aims at s...

Knowing the rate of evapotranspiration (ET) from surface water resources such as lakes and reservoirs is essential for the precise management of water balance. Ardestan city with hot and dry climate is in Isfahan province (center of Iran), so in this region, water is very important. In this study, monthly ET was determined by several methods and equations for Ardestan city from 1993-2006. Month...

This study compares four different potential evapotranspiration equations according to Priestley Taylor, Kimberly Penman, Penman Monteith (FAO-56) and Hargreaves on a global basis to demonstrate their difference, and assess their impact on the calculation of stream flows. The various equations of potential evapotranspiration show great differences in magnitude. But due to the limited availabili...
