          Abstract

          The main objective of this study was to demonstrate the ability of the instantaneous measurements of the evaporative fraction (EF) to estimate the average daily EF and apply the remote sensing algorithm (SEBAL - Surface Energy Balance Algorithms for Land) to obtain the regional distribution of the instantaneous EF in the Semi-arid region of Brazil. The results show that cloudiness is not related to stability of EF and that the correlation between the diurnal stability of EF and the meteorological parameters have shown weak correlation on cloudy days, and strong correlation with the vapor pressure deficit (VPD) on cloud free days. The EF derived from remote sensing data were compared with the field measurements and presented absolute percent difference less than 12%, evidencing the agreement between the SEBAL algorithm results and measured data, and showing that it is a promising tool to provide estimates of the EF to obtain the evapotranspiration.

          O principal objetivo desse estudo é demonstrar a capacidade de utilizar medidas instantâneas da fração evaporativa (FE), para estimar a FE média diária e aplicar o algoritmo de sensoriamento remoto (SEBAL - Surface Energy Balance Algorithms for Land), e para obter a distribuição regional da FE instantânea na região Semi-árida do Brasil. Os resultados mostraram que a nebulosidade não está relacionada com a estabilidade da FE, e que a correlação entre a estabilidade diurna da FE e os parâmetros meteorológicos tem mostrado fraca correlação em dias nublados, assim como forte correlação com o déficit de pressão do vapor (DPV) em dias de céu claro. As FEs derivadas de dados de sensoriamento remoto foram comparadas com medidas de campo e apresentaram diferença percentual absoluta menor que 12%, evidenciando a concordância entre os resultados do algoritmo SEBAL e os dados medidos, mostrando que é uma ferramenta promissora para prover estimativas da FE para obter a evapotranspiração.
