Evaporation, Evapotranspiration, and Irrigation Water Requirements

This manual provides practical information on evaporation and evapotranspiration that practicing engineers, hydrologists, and others need to evaluate data received from various sources in order to predict irrigation requirements in different systems and processes. It also contains background information to enable practicing engineers, educators, and researchers improve procedures for estimating evapotranspiration to achieve the accuracy needed for specific purposes. This second edition updates and expands the 1990 first edition. It covers basic concepts, evapotranspiration from land surfaces, and water requirement estimates.
