Abstract
These methods involve either the direct application, or some approximation of the equation for the energy budget. One form of this equation is given in (6.1) but in many practical situations it can be simplified considerably. A common characteristic of most energy budget methods is that they require the determination of the net radiation, R n . In general, the energy budget method allows the determination of one of the terms of (6.1), or a simplified form of it, when all the remaining terms can be determined by some independent method.
