What are the methods to estimate evaporation, and what are the pros and cons of each method?
a) Methods include pan evaporation, lysimeter, and empirical equations. Pros: Relatively simple. Cons: May not accurately represent actual evaporation rates.
b) Methods include weather data analysis, satellite imagery, and hydrological models. Pros: Provides detailed information. Cons: Requires advanced technology and expertise.
c) Methods include gravimetric analysis, aerodynamic methods, and energy balance models. Pros: Offers accurate measurements. Cons: Can be costly and labor-intensive.
d) Methods include direct measurement, indirect measurement, and theoretical modeling.
