摘要

Hydrological and irrigation planning rely on Reference Evapotranspiration (ET₀), often calculated using the Penman-Monteith (PM) equation, which requires multiple inputs. In our proposed model, Machine Learning (ML) techniques are used for the appropriate estimation of ET₀ from Solar Radiation (SR) data utilizing Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Regression (SVR), and Random Forest (RF). Performance evaluation has been conducted using Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Coefficient of Determination (R²), and Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE). To ensure robustness across varying datasets, we propose a Weighted Average Ensemble (WAE) method, which outperforms other ensemble-based models and other approaches, including Deep Neural Networks (DNN), as identified in recent studies. The proposed model offers a promising solution for estimating ET₀ in areas with limited meteorological data, particularly when SR is the only available parameter.
