A method is presented to calculate potential evapotranspiration (PE), free surface water evaporation (E0) and pan evaporation (EPAN). The values of these parameters obtained show highly significant correlation and good agreement with the available actual measurements, The values obtained for these parameters by other different empirical formulae are found to be higher than the actual measurements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
