Performance evaluation of solar radiation equations for estimating reference evapotranspiration (ETo) in a humid tropical environment

Solar radiation (Rs) is an essential input for estimating reference crop evapotranspiration, ETo. An accurate estimate of ETo is the first step involved in determining water demand of field crops. The objective of this study was to assess the accuracy of fifteen empirical solar radiations (Rs) model...
