Description

Comprehensive approach calculating potential evapotranspiration using three established methods (Thornthwaite, Hargreaves, Penman-Monteith) and actual evapotranspiration using the Budyko model. Provides robust estimates of water balance components for drought analysis.

Typical Equipment

  • SPEI library in R
  • solrad library
  • DayLength function
  • Budyko model equation

Output Measurements

  • potential evapotranspiration
  • actual evapotranspiration
  • aridity index
