Description

Definition
Evapotranspiration is a measurement of the amount of water required for plant growth. The algorithm used for the MOD16 data product collection is based on the logic
of the Penman-Monteith equation, which includes inputs of daily
meteorological reanalysis data along with MODIS remotely sensed data
products such as vegetation property dynamics, albedo, and land cover.
Source of information
Modis (Terra 8-day 500m)

Notes
Frequency: Raw images (5-day) are aggregated to the monthly level using the average value. Monthly images are summarized to the district level using the average value.
