Remotely sensed images of the Earth’s surface provide information about the spatial distribution of evapotranspiration. Since the spatial resolution of evapotranspiration predictions depends on the sensor type; scaling transfer between images of different scales needs to be investigated. The objectives of this study are first to validate the consistency of SEBAL algorithms for satellite images ...

The knowledge of evapotranspiration is of great interest in many applications such as assessing irrigation water use. In this paper, a methodology is presented to estimate evapotranspiration using the surface energy balance model S-SEBI (Simplified Surface Energy Balance Index) and the evaporative fraction. The method is applicable under the assumptions of constant atmospheric conditions and su...

abstract the present study is attempted to present the minimum required meteorological parameters for reference evapotranspiration estimation at hamedan region of iran from 1997 to 1998. employing pierson test, six meteorological parameters which are used by penman-montieth fao-56 method including maximum and minimum air temperature, maximum and minimum relative humidity, wind speed and daily s...

Parameterization of physically based and distributed hydrological models for mesoscale catchments remains challenging because the commonly available data base is insufficient for calibration. In this paper, we parameterize a mesoscale catchment for the distributed model HydroGeoSphere by transferring evapotranspiration parameters calibrated at a highly-equipped headwater catchment in addition t...

A study was carried out in central Italy into the evapotranspiration from linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.). In particular, the objectives were to (a) evaluate the accuracy of daily evapotranspiration estimates from partially incomplete Bowen ratio data; (b) measure seasonal evapotranspiration from linseed; (c) test the FAO 56 method for estimating crop coefficients for linseed and (d) calculate...

Remote sensing can assist in improving the estimation of the geographical distribution of evapotranspiration, and consequently water demand in large cultivated areas for irrigation purposes and sustainable water resources management. In the direction of these objectives, the daily actual evapotranspiration was calculated in this study during the summer season of 2001 over the Thessaly plain in ...

the most precise and simple method of evaporation measurement is application of pans in which class a pan is used in iran. in contrast, there are many empirical methods which are used for estimating the evapotraspiration. in this study, thornthwaite method was used due to the simplicity of its parameters and then we tried to use it for evaluating evapotranspiration by changing it's paramet...
