The effects of climatic changes owing to urbanization, geographical and topographical conditions on Penman-Monteith reference evapotranspiration, and energy and aerodynamic terms of Penman-Monteith reference evapotranspiration have been studied. In this study, 56 climatological stations including the Seoul metropolis in South Korea have been selected, and the area of study site was set at $314\;km^2$. The climatological station is centrally located In the study area with a 10 km radius. The geographical and topographical characteristics of these sites were examined using GIS analysis. Land use status of the study area was also examined to estimate the extent of urbanization. The study results indicated that the variation of reference evapotranspiration rate is closely related to urbanization in most climatological stations. The level of change in reference evapotranspiration was higher in areas with higher urbanization rates. The change in reference evapotranspiration appears to be caused by temperature rises following heat island phenomena due to urbanization, and by the decrease in humidity, wind speed and sunshine duration due to the Increase in residential areas in urban districts. Especially, the humidity decrease causes a significant decrease in evapotranspiration rate. The study results showed that climatic change due to urbanization and proximity to the coast had the greatest effect on reference evapotranspiration.

This study assessed evapotranspiration (ET) methods applying for estimation of paddy rice water demand based on agricultural water supply. The Modified Penman (MP) method and the Penman-Monteith (PM) method recently suggested by Rural Development Administration (RDA) were considered. The 6 Korea Rural Community Corporation (KRC) command areas located in Honam province were selected in this study. The climate characteristics were also analysed with the average annual and the growing season temperatures and rainfalls. As a result, the annual average and the growing season temperature showed the increased trend while the rainfall tended to decrease during 30 years. The paddy rice water demand found to be directly influenced by these climate trends as ET also affected by them. The higher values of paddy rice water demand were obtained from applying MP method compared to the one applying PM method. The lower differences were also obtained from MP method for the comparisons between the paddy rice water demand estimated by both methods with agricultural water supply. Therefore, these results suggest that the MP method is more desirable to use for estimating paddy rice water demand in order to achieve stability of irrigation designs and plans.

Daily potential evapotranspiration was estimated using meteorological data which are observing regularly such as rainfall, temperature, humidity, wind speed, and duration of sunshine. Penman method is used practically in estimating evapotranspiration at present, and its regional coefficients were derived at 19 stations in the Korean Peninsular. Because meteorological data are observing at 77 stations under the Korea Meteorological Administration, the methodology of estimating evapotranspiration using meteorological data will be able to be applied in more regions than Penman method.

The objectives of this study are for finding an optimal calculation method comparing observed evapotranspiration with calculated evapotranspiration by Blaney-Criddle, Penman and Penman-Monteith method which are used in many place of Korea. And after appling optimal calculation method, optimal irrigation is presented through calculation of effective rainfall and requirement water considering characteristics of region, crop and soil.

This article includes hydrometeorological analysis of evapotranspiration and precipitation, which are used available basic data for a certain basin water budget. Evapotranspiration on water surface, bare soil and rice fields is directly measured by Thornthwaite's type Lysimeter and on water surface and vegetables computed using the Penman's equation. Areal precipitation is analized through the Thiessen method and arithmatic mean method. It is interested fact that the correlation coefficient for Class A Pan's evaporation vs. the actual evapotranspiration is the highest value among the coefficients for different type evaporimeter and Penman equation, and evaporation ratio on rice field's evapotranspiration vs. Class A Pan's evaporation is 1. 5-2. 3.

잠재증발량에 대한 많은 경험식들이 제시되어 있지만 각각의 방식에 대한 국내의 적용성에 대하여 구체적으로 비교검토된 사례는 매우 제한적이다. 널리사용되고 있는 Hargreaves식은 비교적 단순한 형태를 지니고 있으나 대기수분량을 계산에 반영치 못하는 한계를 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 남한 내 다목적 댐 유역의 1973-2014년 기상자료를 바탕으로 Penman-Monteith (P-M) 식과 Hargreaves식을 통해 계산한 잠재증발산량($ET_{PM}$, $ET_{Harg}$)의 비교를 통해, Bouchet (1963)의 보완 관계 관점에서 $ET_{Harg}$가 $ET_{PM}$에 비해 과다 산정되는 경향이 있음을 확인하였다. 이에, 1973-2004년에 대한 각 댐 유역의 기상관측소 단위별로 산정된 $ET_{PM}$을 상대적인 정해로 간주하여 Hargreaves식의 매개변수를 추정하였다. 추정된 매개변수는 동일 관측소의 2005-2014년 기상자료와 함께 Hargreaves식에 적용 후, 다목적 댐 유역별 $ET_{PM}$과 $ET_{Harg}$을 산정하여 검정을 수행하였다. 수행 결과, Hargreaves 식의 매개변수 조정 전 $ET_{PM}$과의 Nash-Sutcliffe 일치계수는 0.47-0.79 (1973-2004), 0.28-0.76 (2005-2014)이었고, RMS 오차는 17.79-25.85 (1973-2004), 18.24-27.40 (2005년-2014년)이었으나, 매개변수 조정 후 Nash-Sutcliffe 일치계수는 0.96-0.98 (1973-2004), 0.95-0.98 (2005-2014)로, RMS 오차는 5.78-7.11 (1973-2004), 4.97-6.95 (2005-2014)로 조정 전 보다 향상된 결과를 보였다.

This study is conducted to estimate potential evapotranspiration of 10 weather observing systems in Andong Dam watershed with FAO56 Penman-Monteith (FAO56 PM) methodology using the meteorological data from 2013 to 2014. Also, assuming that there is no solar radiation data, humidity data or wind speed data, the potential evapotranspiration was estimated by FAO56 PM and the results were evaluated to discuss whether the methodology is applicable when meteorological dataset is not available. Then, the potential evapotranspiration was estimated with Hargreaves method and compared with the potential evapotranspiration estimated by FAO56 PM only with the temperature dataset. As to compare the potential evapotranspiration estimated from the complete meteorological dataset and that estimated from limited dataset, statistical analysis was performed using the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), the Mean Bias Error (MBE), the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and the coefficient of determination ($R^2$). Also the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) method was performed to conduct spatial analysis. From the result, even when the meteorological data is limited, FAO56 PM showed relatively high accuracy in calculating potential evapotranspiration by estimating the meteorological data.

Evapotranspiration is one of important variables affecting ecosystem processes such as vegetation distribution and growth. It acts as a limiting factor for natural water resource management. The transpiration of vegetation is mainly determined by climatic factors. The lower slope of the study area was densely forested with Pinus densiflora S. et Z. of 8 m height, and the upper slope was covered with poorly grown Pinus densiflora S. et Z. and Quercus trees. The amount of evapotranspiration was estimated to 590.3 mm/yr by annual water budget method. The canopy resistance of Penman-Monteith model was determined as 99 s/m. Seasonal evapotranspiration can be estimated with the calculated evaporation and the canopy resistance. The amount of evapotranspiration peaked in May. That is considered from both the direct evaporation of intercepted rainfall and the transpiration of vegetation during the dry spring season.

In this study, the daily-based reference evapotranspiration was evaluated with Hargreaves equation at the 23 meteorological stations for the time period of 1997-2006. The Hargreaves coefficient was self-calibrated to give the best fit with Penman-Monteith evapotranspiration, being regarded as a reference. On the basis of the estimated parameter set, a generalized regression was conducted to estimate the Hargreaves evapotranspiration by just using temperature data. This study will contribute to water resources planning, irrigation schedule, and environmental management.
