*pyet* - Estimation of Potential Evapotranspiration
===================================================

Pyet is an open source Python package for the estimation of reference and potential evapotranspiration (PET) from
*pyet* is an open source Python package for the estimation of reference and potential evapotranspiration (PET) from
time series data (`Pandas <https://pandas.pydata.org>`_) and gridded data (`Xarray <https://xarray.dev>`_). This
allows users to estimate potential evapotranspiration and calibrate the models with just a few lines of python code.

Citing PyET
-----------
If you find *pyet* helpful in your work, please consider citing PyET. This way you support the project and we can keep
track of the usage of the package.

.. _`a`: T_max and T_min can also be provided.
.. _`b`: RH_max and RH_min can also be provided.
.. _`c`: If actual vapor pressure is provided, RH is not needed.
.. _`d`: Input for radiation can be (1) Net radiation, (2) solar radiation, or (3) sunshine hours. If (1), then latitude is not needed. If (1, 3) then latitude and elevation are needed.
.. _`e`: One must provide either the atmospheric pressure or elevation.
.. _`h`: If net radiation is provided, RH and Lat are not needed.
.. _`i`: If method==2, u2, RH_min, and sunshine hours are required.
.. _`j`: Additional input of Tmax and Tmin, or Tdew.
.. _`k`: Input can be RH or actual vapor pressure.
.. _`l`: If method==1, latitude is needed instead of Rs.
.. _`m`: Tmax and Tmin also needed.
