Auteurs :
LEGATES, D.R.
MCCABE, G.J. JR.

Description :
The AA. re-evaluate the results of Legates and Mather using bias-adjusted precipitation estimates and an alternative method of estimating potential evapotranspiration (i.e., the Hamon, 1963, method). These new results are compared with those from previous studies and are considered to be an improvement over the Legates and Mather values, as they are based on bias-adjusted precipitation estimates.
