Configuring an ET Weather Station

A typical weather station includes the following meteorological sensors:

• Solar Radiation Sensor (pyranometer)
• Air Temperature Sensor
• Relative Humidity Probe
• Tipping Bucket Rain Gage
• Wind Sensor (anemometer)
The BaseStation 6000 software can read and display the data from the weather station and then use the data from that station

to obtain an accurate estimate of reference ET (ET

o

).

BaseStation 6000 enables you to combine rainfall data with the Hargreaves equation to factor a rain adjustment into the

system’s ET parameters.
