to Taylor (1986), the Thornthwaite method applied to
climatic data for arid regions yields PET values that are
much too low (as much as 150% compared to evaporation-pan
data for the growing season). The Papadakis method
provides estimates of PET that are closest to pan data in
arid climates. Many thanks to Emily Taylor (U.S.
Geological Survey) for guiding me through the complex
calculations of PET and providing me with the appropriate
references.
[Editor's note: These equations contain expressions that
cannot be conveniently represented in plain ASCII text.
Accordingly, I have coded the expressions using the
notation of the programming language BASIC, hoping that
most people will understand that. BASIC has no
subscripting, however, so I used the underscore to
indicate that the next character or two is subscripted.
The correct notations can be obtained by examining the
original document, in Microsoft Word for DOS format.]
LI = (P - PET) summed for each month in which P > PET.
PET (Thornthwaite) = F(1.6(10t/I)^a)
where
t temperature (degrees C) for the month
I sum for 12 months of (t/5)^1.514 (given in column "heat factor I")
a (6.75*10^(-7) * I^3) - (7.71* 10^(-5) * I^2) + (0.1792 * I) + 0.49239 (given in column "exponent a")
F day length factor (from table V in Thornthwaite, 1948)
PET (Papadakis) = 5.625 (e_ma - e_d)
where
e_ma is saturation vapor pressure of monthly average daily maximum temperature (mbars)
e_d is monthly average vapor pressure (dew point) (mbars)
According to Lindsley and others (1975, p. 35), vapour
pressures are calculated by:
e_ma = (33.869(0.00738 (max.T) + 0.8072)^8 - 0.00019 |1.8 (max.T) | + 0.001316)
e_d = (33.869(0.00738 (min.T) + 0.8072)^8 - 0.00019 |1.8 (min.T) | + 0.001316)
where max.T is the monthly average maximum temperature and
min.T is the monthly average minimum temperature.
[Editor's note: Here are the preceding equations rendered
in TeX:
{\parskip=\medskipamount
$LI = (P - PET)$ summed for each month in which $P > PET$.
$$PET (\hbox{Thornthwaite}) = F(1.6(10t/I)^a)$$
where
$$\halign{\quad # \hfil & \quad # \hfil\cr
$t$ & temperature (degrees C) for the month\cr
$I$ & sum for twelve months of $(t/5)^{1.514}$ (given in column ``heat factor I'')\cr
$a$ & $(6.75 \times 10^{-7}I^3) - (7.71 \times 10^{-5}I^2) + (0.1792I) + 0.49239$ (given in column ``exponent a'')\cr
$F$ & day length factor (from table V in Thornthwaite, 1948)\cr
}$$
$$PET (\hbox{Papadakis}) = 5.625 (e_{ma} - e_d)$$
where
$$\halign{\quad # \hfil & \quad # \hfil\cr
$e_{ma}$ & is the saturation vapor pressure of monthly average daily maximum temperature (in mbar), and \cr
$e_d$ & is the monthly average vapor pressure (dew point) in mbars\cr
}$$
According to Lindsley and others (1975, p. 35), vapor pressures are calculated by:
$$e_{ma} = (33.869(0.00738 (\hbox{max.T}) + 0.8072)^8 - 0.00019 \vert 1.8 (\hbox{max.T}) \vert + 0.001316)$$
$$e_d = (33.869(0.00738 (\hbox{min.T}) + 0.8072)^8 - 0.00019 \vert 1.8 (\hbox{min.T}) \vert + 0.001316)$$
where max.T is the monthly average maximum temperature and min.T is the monthly average minimum temperature.

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
This data set contains 430 distinct attributes, some of which
directly describe entities and some merely qualify the values
of other attributes. Documenting these attributes using the
detailed form of the Content Standards for Digital Geospatial
Metadata is possible in principle but cannot be carried out
in a timely fashion.
In general the attributes describe two types of entities,
dust samples collected from traps deployed in Southwestern
Nevada and nearby California, and weather stations nearby
the dust collection sites. These observations are coded in
ASCII tables in which the rows typically refer to the entities
and the columns typically refer to characteristics of those
entities. Here is a list of attributes, sorted by the name of
the file in which they appear, the column within the file, and
giving the column heading that identifies the attribute.
