• Many applications of ET information • Basic hydrology • Water resources assessment and planning • Irrigation management • Regional climate modeling • Terrestrial ecology
• Challenging problem • Extreme spatial gradients in ET-relevant variables • Need for high spatial resolution results • Very few ET measurements
![Page 7: New Interactive Maps of Evapotranspiration, Solar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012812/61c3953e4daacf3cbd125724/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Strategy
• Map all variables needed to estimate ET • Develop high resolution maps: spatial units
234 m x 250 m (770 x 820 ft) • Make maps for each hour of the mean daily
cycle of each month

12 x 24 Hourly Maps + 12 Mean Monthly Maps + 24 Mean Annual Hourly Maps + 1 Annual Map
= 325 Maps for each variable

Penman-Monteith equation
λE = evapotranspiration in energy units s = slope of saturation vapor press vs. temp. curve Rn = net radiation G = soil heat flux QA = sensible heat storage in air layer below ref. ht. QB = sensible heat storage in biomass ρ = air density Cp = specific heat of air at constant pressure VPD = vapor pressure deficit γ = psychrometric constant raH = aerodynamic resistance for sensible heat raW = aerodynamic resistance for water vapor rc = canopy or surface resistance

ET Estimation Strategy • Components of ET calculated separately
– Soil evaporation
– Wet-canopy evaporation
– Transpiration
• ET = sum of the three components
