Özet
Evapotranspiration (ET) is a vital process involving the transfer of water from the Earth's surface to the atmosphere through soil evaporation and plant transpiration. Accurate estimation of ET is important for a variety of applications, including irrigation management and water resource planning. The two-source energy balance (TSEB) model is a commonly used method for estimating ET using remotely sensed data. This study used the TSEB model and high-resolution unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery to estimate sorghum ET under four different irrigation regimes over two growing seasons in 2020 and 2021. The study also validated net radiation (Rn) flux through hand-held radiometer measurements and compared the estimated ET with a soil water balance model. The study outcomes revealed that that the TSEB model capably estimated Rn values, aligning well with ground-based Rn measurements for all irrigation treatments (RMSE = 32.9-39.8 W m(-2) and MAE = 28.1-35.2 W m(-2)). However, the TSEB model demonstrated robust performance in estimating ET for fully irrigated conditions (S1), while its performance diminished with increasing water stress (S2, S3, and S4). The R-2, RMSE, and MAE values range from 0.64 to 0.06, 10.94 to 17.04 mm, and 7.09 to 11.43 mm, respectively, across the four irrigation treatments over a 10-day span. These findings not only suggest the potential of UAVs for ET mapping at high-resolution over large areas under various water stress conditions, but also highlight the need for further research on ET estimation under water stress conditions.
