Improvements to a MODIS global terrestrial evapotranspiration algorithm
TL;DR: In this article, an improved version of the global evapotranspiration (ET) algorithm based on MODIS and global meteorology data has been proposed, which simplifies the calculation of vegetation cover fraction, calculating ET as the sum of daytime and nighttime components, adding soil heat flux calculation, improving estimates of stomatal conductance, aerodynamic resistance and boundary layer resistance, separating dry canopy surface from the wet and dividing soil surface into saturated wet surface and moist surface.

Satellite-Based Energy Balance for Mapping Evapotranspiration with Internalized Calibration (METRIC)—Model
Richard G. Allen,Richard G. Allen,Masahiro Tasumi,Masahiro Tasumi,Ricardo Trezza,Ricardo Trezza +5 more
TL;DR: METRIC uses as its foundation the pioneering SEBAL energy balance process developed in The Netherlands by Bastiaanssen, where the near-surface temperature gradients are an indexed function of radiometric surface temperature, thereby eliminating the need for absolutely accurate surface temperature and theneed for air-temperature measurements.
