What is Pan Evaporation & What is Pan coefficient?
Pan Evaporation is a measurement that combines or integrates the effects of several climate elements: temperature, humidity, rainfall, drought dispersion, solar radiation, and wind. Pan coefficient is the ratio of the amount of evaporation from a large body of water to that measured in an evaporation pan. An evaporation pan provides a measurement of the combined effect of temperature, humidity, windspeed and sunshine on the reference crop evapotranspiration.
How to Calculate Pan Evaporation Loss?
Pan Evaporation Loss calculator uses Pan Evaporation Loss = Lake Evaporation*Number of Days in a Month*10^-3 to calculate the Pan Evaporation Loss, The Pan Evaporation Loss formula is defined as the depth of water that evaporates from the pan. Sometimes precipitation is greater than evaporation, and measured increments of water must be dipped from the pan. Pan Evaporation Loss is denoted by Epm symbol.
How to calculate Pan Evaporation Loss using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Pan Evaporation Loss, enter Lake Evaporation (Elake) & Number of Days in a Month (n) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Pan Evaporation Loss calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.2691 = 12.3*30*10^-3.
