Surface Energy Balance and Crop Coefficient Estimation with R

This R package computes and integrates surface energy balance into FAO56 crop water balance model

Specifically, the package can perform the following functions:

  • Single crop cofficient modelling
  • Dual crop cofficient modelling
  • the integration of thermal-based Evaporative Fractions in a water balance model
  • The computation of Two Source Surface Energy Balance (TSEB) model such as such as TSEB-PT, TSEB-PM and TSEB-Parallel
  • The computation of One Source Surface Energy Balance (OSEB) models such as SEBAL, METRIC, SEBI, SSEB and SEBS
