Meteorological Elements • Energy Balance • Evapotranspiration GEO3020/4020Evapotranspiration • Definition and Controlling factors • Measurements • Physics of evaporation • Estimation of free water evaporation, potential and actual evapotransp. • Processes and estimation methods for bare soil, transpiration, interception

  2. Weather is determined by the energy and mass transport at the surface: Energy transport LE: 15% H: 60% Oceans: 25% Meteorological variables are used to describe the weather and to calculate the components of the energy and water balance equation.

  3. Meteorological variables • Precipitation • Radiation • Air temperature • Air humidity • Wind • Air pressure

  10. Controlling factors of evaporation I. Meteorological situation • Energy availability • How much water vapour can be received • Temperature • Vapour pressure deficit • Wind speed and turbulence

  11. Controlling factors of evaporation II. Physiographic and plant characteristics • Characteristics that influence available energy • albedo • heat capacity • How easily can water be evaporated • size of the evaporating surface • surroundings • roughness (aerodynamic resistance) • salt content • stomata • Water supply • free water surface (lake, ponds or intercepted water) • soil evaporation • transpiration The wind speed immediately above the surface. • The humidity gradient away from the surface. • The rate and quantity of water vapor entering into the atmosphere both become higher in drier air. • Water availability. • Evapotranspiration cannot occur if water is not available.

  14. Flux of water molecules over a surface

  15. Zveg Z0 Zd velocity

  16. Momentum, sensible heat and water vapour (latent heat) transfer by turbulence (z-direction)

  17. Steps in the derivation of LE • Fick’s law of diffusion for matter (transport due to differences in the concentration of water vapour); • Combined with the equation for vertical transport of water vapour due to turbulence (Fick’s law of diffusion for momentum), gives: DWV/DM (and DH/DM) = 1 under neutral atmospheric conditions

  18. Latent heat, LE • Latent heat exchange by turbulent transfer, LE • where • where • ra = density of air; • λv = latent heat of vaporization; • P = atmospheric pressure • k = 0.4; • zd = zero plane displacement • height z0 = surface-roughness height; za = height above ground surface at which va & ea are measured; va = windspeed, ea = air vapor pressure es = surface vapor pressure (measured at z0 + zd)

  19. Sensible heat, H • Sensible-heat exchange by turbulent transfer, H (derived based on the diffusion equation for energy and momentum): • where • where • ra = density of air; • Ca = heat capacity of air; • k = 0.4; • zd = zero plane displacement • height z0 = surface-roughness height; za = height above ground surface at which va & Ta are measured; va = windspeed, Ta = air temperatures and Ts = surface temperatures.

  20. Selection of estimation method • Type of surface • Availability of water • Stored-energy • Water-advected energy Additional elements to consider: • Purpose of study • Available data • Time period of interest

  21. Water balance method Mass-transfer methods Energy balance method Combination (energy + mass balance) method Pan evaporation method Estimation of free water evaporation Defined by not accounting for stored energy

  22. Mass-transfer method Physical based equation: or Empirical equation: • Different versions and expressions exist for KE and the empirical constants b0 and b1; mainly depending on wind, va and actual vapour pressure, ea

  23. Calculation of evaporation using energy balance method Substitute the different terms into the following equation, the evaporation can be calculated where LE has units [EL-2T-1] E [LT-1] = LE/ρwλv Latent Heat of Vaporization : lv= 2.495 - (2.36 × 10-3) Ta [MJkg-1] or 2495 J/g at 0oC

  24. Penman combination method Penman (1948) combined the mass-transfer and energy balance approaches to get an equation that did not require surface temp.: I. Simplifies the original energy balance equation: thus neglecting ground-heat conduction G, water-advected energy Aw, and change in energy storage DQ/Dt. II. The sensible-heat transfer flux, H, is given by: I. + II. gives the Penman equation:

  25. Penman equation – input data • Net radiation (K+L) (measured or alternative cloudiness, C or sunshine hours, n/N can be used); • Temperature, Ta(gives ea*) • Humidity, e.g. relative humidity, Wa = ea/ea* (gives ea and thus the saturation deficit, (ea* - ea) • Wind velocity, va Measurements are only taken at one height interval and data are available at standard weather stations
