10  Exercises

We will calculate evapotranspiration using two methods: Thornthwaite and Penman. After that, we will compare these estimates with measurements of pan evaporation.

10.1 Download data from the IMS

Please follow the instructions below exactly as they are written. Go to the Israel Meteorological Service website, and download the following data:

  1. 10-min data
  • On the navigation bar on the left, choose “10 Minutes Observations”
  • Clock: Local time winter (UTC +2)
  • Choose the following date range: 01/01/2020 00:00 to 01/01/2021 00:00
  • Choose station Bet Dagan
  • Select units: Celcius, m/s, KJ/m\(^2\)
  • Under “Select parameters”, choose “Check All”
  • Choose option “by station”, then “Submit”
  • “Download Result as” CSV, call it bet-dagan-10min.csv
  1. radiation data
  • On the navigation bar on the left, choose “Hourly Radiation”
  • Clock: Local time winter (UTC +2)
  • Choose the following date range: 01/01/2020 00:00 to 01/01/2021 00:00
  • Select hours: Check all hours
  • Choose station Bet Dagan
  • Select units: KJ/m\(^2\)
  • Under “Select parameters”, choose “Check All”
  • “Download Result as” CSV, call it bet-dagan-radiation.csv
  1. pan evaporation data
  • On the navigation bar on the left, choose “Daily Observations”
  • Choose the following date range: 01/01/2020 00:00 to 01/01/2021 00:00
  • Choose station Bet Dagan Man
  • Select units: Celcius
  • Under “Select parameters”, choose “Check All”
  • “Download Result as” CSV, call it bet-dagan-pan.csv

10.2 Install and import relevant packages

We will need to use two new packages:

If you don’t have them installed yet, run this:

!pip install pyet
!pip install noaa_ftp

Once they are installed, import all the necessary packages for today’s exercises.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from pandas.plotting import register_matplotlib_converters
register_matplotlib_converters()  # datetime converter for a matplotlib
import seaborn as sns
sns.set(style="ticks", font_scale=1.5)
import pyet
from noaa_ftp import NOAA

10.3 import 10-minute data

df = pd.read_csv('bet-dagan-10min.csv',
                #  encoding = "ISO-8859-8",  # this shows hebrew characters properly
                 na_values=["-"]           # substitute "-" for NaN
                 )
df['timestamp'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Date & Time (Winter)'], dayfirst=True)
df = df.set_index('timestamp')
# resample to daily data according to "mean"
df = df.resample('D').mean()
# convert hecto pascals (hPa) to kilo pascals (kPa)
df["Pressure (kPa)"] = df["Pressure at station level (hPa)"] / 10.0

10.7 Thornthwaite

\[ E = 16\left[ \frac{10\,T^\text{monthly mean}}{I} \right]^a, \]

where

\[ I = \sum_{i=1}^{12} \left[ \frac{T_i^\text{monthly mean}}{5} \right]^{1.514}, \]

and

\[ \begin{align} a &= 6.75\times 10^{-7}I^3 \\ &- 7.71\times 10^{-5}I^2 \nonumber\\ &+ 1.792\times 10^{-2}I \nonumber\\ &+ 0.49239 \nonumber \end{align} \]

  • \(E\) is the monthly potential ET (mm)
  • \(T_\text{monthly mean}\) is the mean monthly temperature in °C
  • \(I\) is a heat index
  • \(a\) is a location-dependent coefficient

From df, make a new dataframe, df_th, that stores monthly temperatures means. Use resample function.

# monthly data
df_th = (df['Temperature (°C)'].resample('MS')  # MS assigns mean to first day in the month
                               .mean()
                               .to_frame()
        )
        
# we now add 14 days to the index, so that all monthly data is in the middle of the month
# not really necessary, makes plot look better

10.8 Data from NOAA

Let’s download data from a different repository. More specifically, we will retrieve sub-hourly data from the U.S. Climate Reference Network. We can see all the sites in this map. Besides the sub-hourly data, we can find other datasets (monthly, daily, etc).

As an example, we will choose the statin in Austin, Texas. In order to download, we will access the data from the FTP client using the python package noaa_ftp.

The dir command list everything in the folder:

noaa_dir = NOAA("ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov", 'pub/data/uscrn/products/subhourly01').dir()

Let’s download two files: * sub-hourly data for the year 2022 for Austin, TX. * the HEADERS.txt contains the names of the columns in the csv.
