          Abstract

          ABSTRACT The estimation of the reference évapotranspiration is fundamental in defining irrigation projects. However, an estimation using the standard equation requires climate variables that are difficult to measure and are not very accessible. Thus, the objective of this study was to calibrate and validate alternative methods to estimate evapotranspiration that use simple variables and to compare performance with the standard Penman-Monteith method for the municipality of Nova Venécia, Espírito Santo, Brazil. For this, a 12-year time series (2008-2019) of meteorological data from the Instituto Nacional de Meteorología was used. The standard FAO-56 Penman-Monteith method was used to evaluate alternative methods: Hargreaves and Samani, Benevides and Lopes, Linacre, Hamon and Camargo. Method performance was analyzed by correlation coefficient, Willmott index, root mean square of normalized error, and performance index. Calibration improved the statistical indices, increasing the performance of the Hargreaves and Samani, Benevides and Lopes, and Linacre methods to "very good" in the rainy season and to "intermediate" in the dry season. They were superior to the Hamon and Camargo methods, which continued to show "tolerable" to "very poor" performance in both periods.

          RESUMEN La estimación de la evapotranspiración de referencia es fundamental en la definición de proyectos de riego. Sin embargo, una estimación utilizando la ecuación estándar requiere variables climáticas difíciles de medir y poco accesibles. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio fue calibrar y validar métodos alternativos para estimar la evapotranspiración que utilizan variables simples y comparar el desempeño con el método estándar de Penman-Monteith para el municipio de Nova Venécia, Espírito Santo, Brasil. Para ello se utilizó una serie temporal de 12 años (2008-2019) de datos meteorológicos del Instituto Nacional de Meteorología. Se utilizó el método estándar FAO-56 Penman-Monteith para evaluar métodos alternativos: Hargreaves y Samani, Benevides y Lopes, Linacre, Hamon y Camargo. El desempeño del método se analizó mediante el coeficiente de correlación, el índice de Willmott, la raíz cuadrática media del error normalizado y el índice de desempeño. La calibración mejoró los índices estadísticos, aumentando el desempeño de los métodos de Hargreaves y Samani, Benevides y Lopes, y Linacre a "muy bueno" en época de lluvias y a "intermedio" en época seca. Estos fueron superiores a los métodos de Hamon y Camargo, que continuaron mostrando un desempeño "tolerable" a "muy pobre" en ambos períodos.
