Abstract

The form of Penman's evaporation equation most extensively applied in hydrometeorology is discussed. It is shown that this equation underemphasizes the importance of ventilation relative to radiation in maintaining regional evaporation. A generalized ventilation term is proposed and a modified equation for evaporation derived. This new equation is calibrated to give the same annual total for short vegetation as Penman's original version. It predicts both an enhancement of winter evaporation at the expense of summer evaporation and a significant increase in annual total evaporation with vegetation size, especially in regions of frequent substantial rainfall.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
