Assessing Crop Coefficients for Natural Vegetated Areas Using Satellite Data and Eddy Covariance Stations. [PDF]
Sensors (Basel), 2017 The Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) method for potential evapotranspiration assessment is based on the crop coefficient, which allows one to relate the reference evapotranspiration of well irrigated grass to the potential evapotranspiration of ...

Assessing FAO-56 dual crop coefficients using eddy covariance flux partitioning
Agricultural Water Management, 2017 Current approaches to scheduling crop irrigation using reference evapotranspiration (ET0) recommend using a dual-coefficient approach using basal (Kcb) and soil (Ke) coefficients along with a stress coefficient (Ks) to model crop evapotranspiration (ETc),
