Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples

View source: R/Penman.R

Description

Computes and adds E0, ES0, ET0 to a WeatherObject where these are absent using Penmans formulation.

Usage

1
Penman(w)

Arguments

w

WeatherObject where E0, ES0 and ET0 are not computed yet.

Details

This routine calculates the potential evapo(transpi)ration rates from a free water surface (E0), a bare soil surface (ES0), and a crop canopy (ET0) in mm/d. For these calculations the analysis by Penman is followed (Frere and Popov, 1979;Penman, 1948, 1956, and 1963).

Value

WeatherObject w with added E0, ES0 and ET0 slots.
