abstract evapotranspiration as one of the most important components of the hydrologic cycle, plays a key role in water resources management, crop yield simulation and irrigation scheduling. therefore, presenting a low cost and precision model is very essential for calculations of hourly eto. although, there are empirical formulas, their performances are not all satisfactory due to the complicat...

accurate estimation of crop evapotranspiration (etc) plays an important role in improving the water useefficiency (wue) and water management. due to the presence of different types of coatings plant in large areas, the accurate calculation of the water requirements by conventional methods is elusive or impossible. remote sensing methods are becoming attractive to estimate crop evapotranspiratio...

Evapotranspiration (ETc) partitioning and obtaining of FAO56 dual crop coefficient (Kc) for olive was carried out with the SIMDualKc software application for root zone and topsoil soil water balance based on the dual crop coefficients. A simplified two source-energy balance model (STSEB), based on daily remotely sensed soil and canopy thermal infrared data and retrieval of surface fluxes, also ...

The performance of sixteen Valiantzas’ reference evapotranspiration models was investigated using the meteorological data obtained from Agricultural Engineering College and Research Institute, Kumulur, Lalgudi Taluk Tiruchirapalli district, which is a semi-arid region located in Tamil Nadu, India. compared with globally used FAO56 Penman-Monteith method. indexes for comparison are coefficient d...

Accurate estimation of evapotranspiration has crucial importance in arid regions like Egypt, which suffers from the scarcity precipitation and water shortages. This study provides an investigation performance 31 widely used empirical equations 20 models developed using five artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to estimate reference (ET0) generate gridded high-resolution daily ET0 estimates o...

Agro-hydrological models have increasingly become useful and powerful tools in optimizing water and fertilizer application, and in studying the environmental consequences. Accurate prediction of water dynamics in such models is essential for models to produce reasonable results. In this study, detailed simulations were performed for water dynamics of rainfed winter wheat and barley grown under ...
