Abstract

The crop evapotranspiration has the great effect on defining and planning of water resources. The estimation of evapotranspiration depends on various climatic parameters. In this study, the analysis of the effect of solar radiation (Rs) on daily reference evapotranspiration (ET0) was conducted. The FAO-56 Penman-Monteith method (FAO-56 PM) was used for the estimation of ET0 in Serbia at eight meteorological stations for the period 1980-2010. The Rs was estimated using the ten one-parameter global solar radiation models. The ET0 with Almorox and Hontoria model 1 had the smallest deviation related to the ET0 with Angstr?m-Prescott (AP) model, and ET0 with To?rul et al. model 2 and Rietveld model had the greatest deviation from ET0 with AP model.
