Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Suppose the net radiation, R_n, is found to drop significantly in a region experiencing high temperatures. How should this affect estimations using the Penman Equation, and what adjustments might be necessary for forecasting?

💡 Hint: Consider the balance of energy and how all components interact.

Question 2

Create a hypothetical scenario where the vapor pressure deficit is zero and explain its implications on the Penman Equation and evaporation rates.

💡 Hint: Think about the basics of saturation and its effect on the evaporation process.
