Additionally, evapoRe offers the functionality to calculate various Potential EvapoTranspiration (PET) methods. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ## Before We Start Like many other R packages, `evapoRe` has some system requirements: - [PROJ](https://proj.org/download.html) - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library [(GDAL)](https://gdal.org/download.html) - Network Common Data Form [(NetCDF)](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/) ## Data `evapoRe` database hosts 13 different ET data sets; three satellite-based, five reanalysis, and five hydrological model products. Their native specifications, as well as links to their providers, and their respective references are detailed in the following subsections. We have already homogenized, compacted to a single file, and stored them in a [Zenodo repository](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10011192) under the following naming convention: `_______
