Estimation of Daily Potential Evapotranspiration Using Pan Evaporation Class A for Mosul Region
Main Article Content
Abstract
Abstract FAO Penman – Montetih is the most important ideal method for the estimation of daily potential evapotranspiration in many studies all over the world including Iraq. The objective of this study is to estimate daily potential evapotranspiration using the data of pan evaporation Class A for Mosul Region. A second degree relation is obtained with correlation coefficient of (0.92). This relation is tested and compared with other methods related to our recent study using different statistical criteria. The results showed high credibility. Therefore, it is recommend to use this method within Mousl Region, instead of using complicated equations which need many climatic information that might be unavailable.
