Evaluation of a Parametric Approach for Estimating Potential Evapotranspirati…

Potential evapotranspiration (PET) is key input in water resources, agricultural and environmental modelling. For many decades,numerous approaches have been proposed for the consistent estimation of PET at several time scales of interest. The most recognized is the Penman-Monteith formula, which is yet difficult to apply in data-scarce areas, since it requires simultaneous observations of four …
