Actual evapotranspiration and interception (Kairouan, Tunisia - Dekadal) - WaPOR v2

The actual EvapoTranspiration and Interception (ETIa) is the sum of the soil evaporation (E), canopy transpiration (T), and evaporation from rainfall intercepted by leaves (I). The value of each pixel represents the average daily ETIa in a given dekad.

Data publication: 2020-01-01

Supplemental Information:

No data value: -9999

Unit: mm

Conversion factor: the pixel value in the downloaded data must be multiplied by 0.1

New dekadal data layers are released approximately 5 days after the end of a dekad. A higher quality version of the same data layer is uploaded after 6 dekads have passed. This final version of the dekadal dataset has a higher quality because gap filling and interpolation processes, where needed, have been based on more data observations.

The calculation of the ETIa is based on the ETLook model described in Bastiaanssen et al. (2012). See the methodology of the three components (E, T and I) for further information.
