Lesson 3 - Evaporation and Evapotranspiration (Water Management Modeling Series)

This webinar will cover a brief explanation of some simplified evaporation and evapotranspiration (ET) calculation methods, followed by the FAO method with a demonstration of 1 or more of these and show how they can be applied in a real application to calculate water demand. Methods likely included in this webinar:

• Time series input
• Seasonal adjustments using a lookup table
• Harmon Evaporation Calculation
• Hargreaves Samani ET
• Reference ET (from FOA publications)
