In order to determine the required water for irrigation it is necessary to calculate the amount of needed water by plant or evapotranspiration. The equations that are used to calculate evapotranspiration are not applying the same climatic parameters and, due to their experimental nature, they are not suitable for all climatic conditions. In the present study in order to compare evapotranspirati...

coriandrum sativum l. is one of the most important plants compared to the other herbs and medicinal plants as a planted covered area in kermanshah province. for a suitable irrigation management programming, the awareness of crop coefficient and water requirement in different plant stages is essential. the ratio of actual evapotranspiration to reference crop evapotranspiration is defined as crop...

This study evaluates seven evapotranspiration models and their performance in water balance studies by using lysimeter measurement data at the Mönchengladbach hydrological and meteorological station in Germany. Of the seven evapotranspiration models evaluated, three models calculate actual evapotranspiration directly using the complementary relationship approach, i.e. the CRAE model of Morton, ...

Evapotranspiration, a major component in terrestrial water balance and net primary productivity models, is difficult to measure and predict. This study compared five models of potential evapotranspiration (PET) applied to a ponderosa pine forest ecosystem at an AmeriFlux site in Northern California. The AmeriFlux sites are research forests across the United States, Canada, Brazil, and Costa Ric...

estimating and determining of rice water requirement, being the main cultivate of rasht region, is crucial for devoting water to this region. equations which are used to calculate the reference evapotranspiration (et0) are not match to all climatic conditions, due to their empirical bases. so, it is necessary to clarify proper methods for each region. crop coefficient (kc) is also the main para...

ABSTRACT- In order to study the effects of different irrigation regimes and plant density on yield and yield components of bean, a split plot arrangement was conducted in complete randomized block design during two years. The foremost variable was four levels of irrigation: 60, 80, 100, and 120% of the potential evapotranspiration. The second variable was within the row spacing of 5 cm (D1), 10...

Estimating evapotranspiration is essential for understanding the water cycle of natural systems and for the management of the water resources in landscape systems. This paper presents a procedure to calculate the evapotranspiration using the remote sensing data and Grid Computing. Evapotranspiration was retrieved during satellite overpass and integrated for 24 hours on pixel-by-pixel base for d...
