Priestley-Taylor ET
Rigon, R.
The problem
It can be derived from Penman-Monteith equation by cutting the part dependent on the so called atmospheric demand [1,2,3].
![Page 3: Priestley taylor in coarse-grained models](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55a5f64d1a28ab3e188b4585/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

A little of notation
Brackets indicate indicate spatial average:
the index A indicates the area of the domain of integration. In case it is generic or obvious, it can be omitted.
Overline indicates temporal average, the time interval is usually omitted, and must be deduced by the context
Rigon, R.
Notation
![Page 4: Priestley taylor in coarse-grained models](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55a5f64d1a28ab3e188b4585/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

The way it is derived implies it is, in first place, an approximated formula for instantaneous Evapotranspiration. Therefore, to obtain it for hourly or daily rates, we have to integrate it in time.
The nature of alpha as a parameter that is calibrated or determined “a posteriori” make it reasonable to assume that it can be considered a constant. The fractional term is mildly dependent on temperature, and therefore, we can assume that it can be approximated by an appropriate value estimated for a representative temperature (and the bias correction included in the determination of alpha).
* I am sorry of using with two different meanings
Rigon, R.
Time averaging
![Page 5: Priestley taylor in coarse-grained models](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55a5f64d1a28ab3e188b4585/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Therefore:
Or:
and the form of the formula remains approximately invariant, if we substitute the instantaneous quantity with the hourly ones. Let’s in the following drop the subscript and assume that the quantities are replaced by suitably averaged quantity.
Rigon, R.
Time averaging

If we extend our analysis to a spatial domain, we have to integrate all in space:
where HRU stands for Hydrologic Response Unit, meaning a portion of a basin where hydrological quantities can (or must) be considered homogeneous. For the same arguments exposed for the temporal average:
which says that the operation of spatial average (coarse graining) does not change the form of PT formula, if we substitute in the formula, suitably spatially averaged quantities.
Rigon, R.
Space averaging

Algebra is trivial but indicates that
t h e f o r m u l a f o r m r e m a i n s
approximately valid if we consider
a v e r a g e s a n d n o t p o i n t
measurements !
In case, one should test how much a single point measurement is representative of the average.

Everything change
if we consider a dependance from soil moisture content. In this case:

If we assume the Rodriguez-Iturbe hypothesis [4]

Thus averaging
If we do not consider raining intervals (where we can assume to have computed ET in the net rainfall budget, i.e. we assume that measured rainfall is the net budget of rainfall minus ET), and if the time interval of integration is no more than daily, we can think that f ~ const, and therefore:

Therefore
should be an acceptable approximation

Averaging over space is a little bit more tricky
From:
Now, by definition, if f and energy terms are uncorrelated, or, for instance, either soil moisture or radiation is uniform (i.e. spatially constant):

In rugged terrain
Simulations with complex models [5,6] suggest that this is not usually the case. Therefore, the average product
should be statistically modelled, after, for instance, simulations with process-based distributed models.
