The special heat of evaporation is used to convert Radiation into evapotranspiration equivalent.
This factor can be assumed to be constant ( L 2.45 MJ m-2 hour-1 mm-1) or dependent of air
temperature. The second case is calculated after equation (2).

Makkink
The equation after Makkink as well is a simplification of the FAO Penman-Monteith equation.
Like Priestley-Taylor, also Makkink only includes the radiation part of FAO Penman-Monteith.
Compared to Priestley-Taylor it only uses solar radiation ( RS ) instead of the whole radiation
balance, specifically the net radiation ( Rn ). This has a huge advantage, since often only solar
radiation is measured and not all four relevant radiation parts.
In literature two slightly different Makkink equations can be found. They are named here 1. as
described by DVWK1 (see equation (3)) and 2. as in TOPKAPI2 (see equation (4)). The difference is
that once parameter c 2 is inside the brackets whereas in the other equation the parameter is
outside.

Hargreaves
The model to estimate ET after Hargreaves is a strongly empirical model. Both, radiation and
temperature are used as input data. Advantageous is, that no radiation has to be measured,
since the model works with calculated extraterrestrial radiation.
Slightly different equations can be found in literature as well:
Hargreaves original
The history of development of the 1985 Hargreaves equation is described in Hargreaves et al.,
2003. Combining the two equations (5) and (6), the Hargreaves equation (7) for daily
evapotranspiration can be found. The actual factor of 0.0022 was adjusted by Hargreaves to
0.0023 .

DVWK
DVWK states equation (8). The conversion from radiation to equivalent evapotranspiration is
done with a temperature dependent function LT (equation (2)) else than in the original
Hargreaves model (equation (7)) where a constant factor was used.

Turc
The method after Turc (equation (9)) was developed for France and North Africa. As in the
Hargreaves equation, not only radiation, but also temperature is used as input parameters. The
Formula after Turc is only defined for temperatures above zero, and gets inaccurate at low
temperatures. Therefore for low temperatures, often the formula after Ivanov is used (see
equation (12)).
If global radiation is not measured, it can be estimated by equation (11).

Ivanov
Because evapotranspiration after Turc is only defined for positive temperatures, a modified
formula after Ivanov (Wendling & Mller, 1984) is widely used to estimate monthly
evapotranspiration for the winter months November till February (see equation (12) for daily
respectively equation (13) for monthly ET).

Thornthwaite
Thornthwaite developed the empirical equation (14) on basis of climatologic data from several
different regions. The values J and a have to be determined for every single location separately,
from the long term average monthly temperatures, where negative temperatures have to be
set zero. The formula was developed to estimate large-area monthly evapotranspiration.

Based on temperature and the yearly sum of astronomic possible sunshine duration, Blaney
and Criddle derived the formula to estimate potential evapotranspiration (see equation (18)).
The formula is developed for the Western United States. It says the formula should not be
assigned to other areas. For Central Europe the formula can be corrected after Schrdter (1985)
as given in Equation (19).
