Class Documentation

class PenmanMonteith_evaporation : public module_base

Calculates evapo-transpiration via Penman-Monteith.

Not currently maintained.

Depends:

• Incoming shortwave radaition “iswr” [ \( W \cdot m^{-2} \) ]

• Incoming longwave radiation “ilwr” [ \( W \cdot m^{-2} \) ]

• Relative humidity “rh” [%]

• Windspeed at 2m “U_2m_above_srf” [ \( m \cdot s^{-1} \) ]

Provides:

• Evapotranspiration “ET” [ \( mm \cdot dt^{-1} \) ]

Public Functions

PenmanMonteith_evaporation(config_file cfg)

~PenmanMonteith_evaporation()

virtual void run(mesh_elem &face)

Needs to be implemented by each data parallel module. This will be called and executed for each timestep

Parameters:

• face – The terrain element (triangle) to be worked upon for an element parallel domain

• global_param – A pointer to the shared global paramter space with domain-wide paramters
