The season fraction and index are variables used for calculating the transpiration factor in the Ground evaporation formula. It uses the configured start date of a Water Overlay and selected months and day of months to determine one of the four configured (seasonal) evaporation factors.

Evaporation month indices:

Month Day of Month Transpiration value
March 15 1st
April 15 2nd
July 15 3rth
September 15 4th
October 1 1st

Evaporation factor graphs

The evaporation graphs showing the evaporation factor as a percentage per day. These are based on Table 2.10 Cropfactors[1] of the Gwz2016 book. The approximated graphs use five control points (see the season table above) per type, such that it can be reduced to four values per year.

Notes

  • The growth season dates are determined based on western european growth and transpiration graphs of the following crops and plants: grass, corn, potato, beet, grain, orchard and heather.
