Reference crop evapotranspiration over Greece
Abstract Monthly evapotranspiration (ET) estimates for 31 locations in Greece are calculated by the Penman, Priestley-Taylor and Thornthwaite methods. The analysis of 27 years of routine meteorological data indicates that annual amounts of ET obtained by Priestley-Taylor or Thornthwaite methods do not generally agree very well with Penman ET (ETPEN ...

Uncertainty in the determination of soil hydraulic parameters and its influence on the performance of two hydrological models of different complexity [PDF]
Data of soil hydraulic properties forms often a limiting factor in unsaturated zone modelling, especially at the larger scales. Investigations for the hydraulic characterization of soils are time-consuming and costly, and the accuracy of the results ...

Crop coefficients, growth rates and quality of cool-season turfgrasses [PDF]
Determination of crop coefficients (Kc), the ratio between actual (ETa) and reference evapotranspiration (ET0), is necessary to schedule irrigation. Our objective was to determine Kc, turf quality and growth rate under daily irrigation to field capacity (

Water requirement and crop coefficients of sorghum in Apodi Plateau
Sorghum is of significant economic importance for Northeastern Brazil, since it exhibits high growth rates in regions with irregular rainfall distribution and high temperatures, and is an alternative to corn, which has greater water requirements. Despite
