| Abstract/Contents: | "The traditional approach to estimating evapotranspiration (ET) originating from applied irrigation water is to apply crop coefficients (Kc) to land use types and then multiply by reference ET (ETo). However, the Kc X ETo approach can be subject to significant uncertainty due various factors including land use and water management. Remote sensing, using satellite imagery and ancillary weather data combined with proven energy balance algorithms offers a new tool for estimating plant ET. Evapotranspiration estimated from remote sensing is combined with GIS coverage of land use, to determine plant factors (Kcs). Factors influencing ET are inherently accounted for in this approach. Water conservation professionals can use the information to help irrigation managers better match plant water needs with available supplies and to target irrigation system improvements. In addition, spatial and temporal coverage can be used for viewing on Google Earth." |
