Report and code from S&T Project 1763: The West-wide Evapotranspiration Forecast (WwET4Cast) Network
This project addresses forecasting of daily reference evapotranspiration (ETo) at agro-meteorological stations based on downscaled meteorological variables from 1) the NOAA Global Forecast System (GFS) model producing 16-day, daily ETo forecasts; and 2) the NOAA Climate Forecast System (CFS) model resulting in seasonal ETo forecast outlooks out 60-days (daily ETo) and 6 months (monthly ETo). The results of the project include the development of the West-wide Evapotranspiration Forecast (WwET4Cast) Network, which is a web-based service for generating and disseminating the forecasts at agro-meteorology stations and grid cells throughout the western United States.
