pyet.meteo_utils.calc_es(tmean=None, tmax=None, tmin=None)

Saturation vapor pressure [kPa].

Parameters:

• tmean (array_like, optional) – average day temperature [°C].

• tmax (array_like, optional) – maximum day temperature [°C].

• tmin (array_like, optional) – minimum day temperature [°C].

Returns:

• float or pandas.Series or xarray.DataArray containing the calculated saturation

• vapor pressure [kPa].

Examples

>>> es = calc_es(tmean)

Notes

Based on equation 11, 12 in Allen et al. (1998).
