♦ DESCRIPTION ♦


The program ONLINE_PENMAN calculates potential evapotranspiration [ET]o by the Penman method, given specified climatic conditions.

The input is: (a) the chosen month, (b) mean monthly air temperature Ta (oC), (c) mean monthly net radiation Qn (cal/cm2/day), (d) relative humidity RH (%), and (e) wind velocity at 2-m depth v2 (km/day).

The output is daily potential evapotranspiration, in cm/day, and monthly potential evapotranspiration, in cm.
