Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In an area with high winds and low humidity, the measured evaporation from a Class A pan is 12mm. If the average K_p for this environment is determined to be 0.6, what is the estimated ET?

💡 Hint: Use the formula and consider how environmental factors play a role.

Question 2

Investigate how an increase in temperature affects the K_p and subsequent ET estimates. Design a brief report discussing the relationship with supporting data.

💡 Hint: Focus on how K_p changes with temperature.
