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.
