Estimation of the Monthly Reference Evapotranspiration in the AraucanÃa Region, Chile, from Modis/Terra Satellite Data
Abstract We propose a multiple regression model is to estimate the monthly reference evapotranspiration (ETo), on a regional scale, from data provided by the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) sensor on board the TERRA satellite platform. The input data assumed by the model are the Normalized Difference Infrared Index (NDII) and the earth’s surface temperature,…
