    1. What equation was used to convert weather Data to ET?

    2. Would you recommend P-M equation for forest ET?

    We use the FAO Penman-Monteith equation to calculate evapotranspiration. As far as I know, the PM equation is well suited to measuring forest ET ... although you would need to get the instruments placed well above the top of the forest canopy.
