determination of crops water requirement in different environmental conditions is essential for preparation of precise and suitable irrigation scheduling. the effect of soil compaction and texture on crop coefficient and evapotranspiration of maize was investigated in this study, which was conducted as a factorial experiment with a completely randomized design in a research farm in jey and qaha...

The estimation model was constructed to estimate the evapotranspiration and canopy interception from the forest stand using the parameters showing the forest structure such as stem density, tree height and leaf area index. This model is expected to have the ability to estimate the effect of forest management such as stem thinning and leaf amount control. Comparing the calculated rate by this mo...

This paper presents a method for the estimation of the soil heat flux that was used to determine the evapotranspiration in ecosystems. The great advantage of this approach is that there is the possibility to use this method for both daytime and nighttime as well as that the parameters are adaptively recalculated depending on three soil temperatures. It enables the estimation in situ of the soil...

sensitivity analysis to determine variations in evapotranspiration is much important considering a known variation in one of climatic variables. in this study, sensitivity of evapotranspiration from penmann-mantith, penmann-kimberly (1996), penman-kimberly (1972) and penmann (1984)  and hargrivs (1985) approaches to three climatic variations (maximum temperature, wind speed, solar radiation) wa...

this study aimed at determining the evapotranspiration and crop coefficient (kc) of sugar beet during the plant growth using drainage lysimeter by using water balance and experimental methods for three years in shahrekord. after sugar beet planting and out of lysimeter, evapotranspiration was measured weekly and monthly by measuring the factors of the water- balance equation. results showed tha...
