Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A farmer collects data from a pan showing E_pan is 5 mm. If Kₚ at his location is determined to be 0.75, how much evaporation should the farmer expect from his larger water reservoir?

💡 Hint: Recall the formula involving Kₚ.

Question 2

Discuss the challenges faced when applying Kₚ in regions with fluctuating weather conditions. How might this impact water management strategies?

💡 Hint: Consider how various conditions affect evaporation rates.
