CALIBRATIONS FOR COMPUTING THORNTHWAITE'S POTENTIAL EVAPOTRANSPIRATION IN CALIFORNIA

The Professional Geographer, 1978
The Thornthwaite method for computing evapotranspiration has been employed in a variety of climatic realms. Recently, the equation for computing potential evapotranspiration has been shown to underestimate measured moisture losses in dry environments.

The Climates of New Zealand: According to Thornthwaite's Classification

Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 1946
The climate of New Zealand has been described as insular or oceanic and has been classed as warm temperate. Such broad terminology fails to recognize the marked differences which actually exist between the climate of one region and another. There are local contrasts in rainfall totals, in rainfall periodicity, and temperature regimes which are ...

Climates of the Rhodesias and Nyasaland: According to the Thornthwaite Classification

Geographical Review, 1953
HE general pattern of climate in the tropics is one of temperature |uniformity and rainfall variability. Rainfall is the climatic factor of greatest economic importance, and investigations into the water balance have the same significance as investigations into the heat balance in higher latitudes.

Trends of Thornthwaite Climate Indices in Turkey

2019
Climatic parameters change over time, and these changes are regarded as significant differences when they cross certain thresholds. In Turkey, the temperature increases despite differences in the seasonal variations, and increasing trends are seen in rainfall in the north and decreases in the south. In this study, the trends in the Thornthwaite climate
