Abstract

Weekly potel1tial evapotranspiration is estimated by four different methods- (A) Interpolation of monthly values estimated by modified Penman formula, (B) Estimation by modified Penman formula with weekly meteorological normals and measured net solar radiation as input data, (C) Computed following the method given by Doorenbos and Pruitt (1975) and (D) Estimation by modified Penman formula with weekly meteorological normals and solar radiation obtained from tables. Values so obtained are compared with actual evaporation. Method D may be used to compute PE values from climatological data if, net solar radiation is not available.
