The reported experiment was designed to provide an estimate of net evaporation and interception losses due to overhead daytime sprinkling of corn. Net losses were defined as the difference between the consumptive use of water of sprinkler irrigated crop and the "normal" evapotranspiration of the uns
Micrometeorological theory of advection is used to model interception losses contingent on sprinkler irrigation. Using power-law descriptions of the wind speed and effective diffusivities appropriate for neutral conditions, equations are developed to calculate the evaporation enhancement from the ar
