The Continuously Operating Raw Pan Simulation and Evaluation (CORPSE) is a steady-state computerised simulation of such a pan, based on the solution by the Newton-Raphson method of simultaneous algebraic equations which describe the mass and heat transfer within and the material balances over each compartment. Each compartment is considered as a stirred tank reactor, with unknown components bei...

Crop coefficient (Kc)-based estimation of crop evapotranspiration is one of the most commonly used methods for irrigation water management. However, uncertainties of the generalized dual crop coefficient (Kc) method of the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations Irrigation and Drainage Paper No. 56 can contribute to crop evapotranspiration estimates that are substantially diffe...

this study was conducted to determine the appropriate irrigation interval on the basis of cumulative water evaporation from standard evaporation pan (class a) and to find out the effects of irrigation regimes on growth indices and on qualitative and quantitative yields of sugar beet. the experiment was conducted in 2005 at the lavark agricultural experiment station fields, isfahan university of...
