摘要
The forthcoming revision of the FAO ID-24 publication (Crop Water Requirements) utilizes the FAO form of the Penman-Monteith equation to predict grass reference evapotranspiration (ET) and includes modified procedures for estimating crop coefficients (K-c). The K-c of the initial growing period has been reexpressed using an integrated, volumetric-based decay equation to describe the effect of the surface soil water balance on evaporation. The K-c table of the original FAO ID-24 publication, which had multiple entries for four wind-relative humidity classes, has been condensed into one column representing K-c's for conditions of low wind and moderate relative humidity. K-c's for other climatic conditions are derived using an equation containing wind speed and relative humidity. Procedures are introduced for applying FAO K-c's as "basal" coefficients, where increases in K-c during evaporation from wet soil are computed using decay functions based on a moisture balance of the soil surface.
