摘要
Accurate evaporation estimation is crucial for managing hydrologic, hydraulic, and agricultural systems, among many other applications of water resources. Empirical formulae for estimating evaporation exist, but their performance is not always sufficient due to the intricacy of the process and its nonlinear connection with other elements of the hydrological cycle. For this reason, a model of artificial neural networks was developed to estimate the daily potential evaporation in the southern Iraqi city of Basrah. A feedforward backpropagation (BP) network with a single hidden layer has been used to construct the mode. Different networks with various neuron counts were assessed. The developed models have been trained, tested, and validated using daily observations of the average rainfall, wind speed, average temperature, average relative humidity, and evaporation. The final evaporation was predicted using an artificial neural network (ANN) model. The proposed model was found to be more suitable to describe evaporation in any region of the world based on the values of the error analysis and the coefficient of determination, according to the ANN model. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (LMA) was determined to have the lowest mean-squared error (MSE) and highest value of the coefficient of correlation (R) of the six proposed BP algorithms. The LMA's hidden layer's ideal neuron count was 30 neurons, with an MSE of 0.00288 and R-2 = 99. As a result, ANN displayed excellent performance in terms of evaporation prediction value. The study's findings highlight the significance of predicting evaporation as the main metric for evaluating the effects of climate change on water resources.
