Maximum evapotranspiration(ETm) was estimated by the water balance method and reference evapotranspiration(ETo) by the following methods : Penman, class A pan, solar radiation and Thornthwaite.

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 3 CONT
The CIMIS weather stations use the gathered data in what is known as a "modified Penman" equation to calculate ETo. ETo is one standard for a reference evapotranspiration. It is the ET of a well-watered, lush grass pasture. Other commonly used standards are ETp, which is the ET of a lush, well-watered alfalfa, and ETpan, which is the evaporation from a U.S. Weather Bureau Class A evaporation pan. 5, record 2, English, - reference%20evapotranspiration

L'évapotranspiration de référence ETr [...] Le couvert végétal choisi est généralement un gazon maintenu ras; de cette manière la résistance de l'espace poreux végétal, rp, est négligeable. Cette grandeur est celle que l'on a longtemps appelée évapotranspiration potentielle ETP. De même l'évaporation réelle ET correspond à ce que l'on a longtemps appelé évapotranspiration réelle ETR. 1, record 2, French, - %C3%A9vapotranspiration%20de%20r%C3%A9f%C3%A9rence

L'évapotranspiration maximale ETm d'une culture est la valeur de l'évapotranspiration, en l'absence d'advection, quand les conditions d'alimentation hydrique sont optimales, c'est-à-dire quand l'humidité du sol est proche de la capacité au champ dans la zone racinaire; dans ces conditions la résistance stomatique est minimale et la résistance de l'espace poreux végétal rp intervient; cette dernière dépend de l'espèce végétale et de son stade végétatif. L'évapotranspiration ETm peut être reliée à l'évaporation potentielle EP par des coefficients culturaux empiriques inférieurs à l'unité. 1, record 3, French, - %C3%A9vapotranspiration%20maximale
