- Statement
- The potential evapotranspiration (PET) is derived from the air temperature, specific humidity, downward long- and shortwave radiation and surface air pressure from the Climate hydrology and ecology research support system Climate hydrology and ecology research support system meteorology dataset (CHESS-met) data set (https://doi.org/10.5285/835a50df-e74f-4bfb-b593-804fd61d5eab) using a version of the Penman-Monteith equation parameterised for Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO)-defined well-watered grass. The potential evapotranspiration with interception correction (PETI) is derived from all of the above, plus the (CHESS-met) precipitation, which is the Gridded estimates of daily and monthly areal rainfall for the United Kingdom (CEH-GEAR) precipitation (https://doi.org/10.5285/dbf13dd5-90cd-457a-a986-f2f9dd97e93c) scaled to appropriate units. The PETI calculation adds a correction for interception by a well-watered grass on rain days.
