A Comparative Study of Daily Pan Evaporation Estimation Using ANN, Regression and Climate Based Models

Abstract: Evaporation estimates are needed for efficient management of water resources at a farm scale as well as at a regional or catchment scale. This paper presents application of artificial neural networks (ANN), statistical regression and climate based models viz.: Penman, Priestley-Taylor and Stephens and Stewart, for estimation of daily pan evaporation. Six different measured weather variables comprising various combinations of maximum and minimum air temperature, sun shine hours, wind speed, relative humidity I … Show more

“…Figure 4 summaries the efficiency of the RPD model in predicting the observed rainfall events during various time periods. From Figure 4, it propagation neural networks, consists of three distinct layers i) input layer, ii) hidden layer & iii) output layer [14][15][16]. A network consists one input, one or more hidden layers and one output layer.…”

“…Given the good accuracy of soft computing models, the majority of studies in this field have used these models for predicting the daily pan evaporation. In a study by Shirsath and Singh [17], the ANN and regression based models were used to estimate daily pan evaporation and compared with the multiple linear regression. In a study by Chang et al [18], the self-organizing map neural network and back propagation neural network were compared in estimating daily pan evaporation.…”

“…They found that the SVM and ANFIS had better performance in ET modeling compared to the others. Besides, several studies have shown high performance of ANNs in modeling ET against statistical methods [8,[25][26][27][28][29]. The substantial benefit of ANN methods, compared to conventional methods, is the ability of solving problems that are difficult to formalize [30].…”
