Statistical modeling of watershed scale evapotranspiration | Dhungel, Sulochan; Barber, Michael E. | This project develops a statistical model using estimates of evapotranspiration derived from remote sensing techniques to predict agricultural water consumption. With future climate data, this model can be used to predict future consumptive use | 2017 |
