The invention discloses a method for improving an areal aridity /
humidity simulating effect. The method comprises the following steps: collecting monthly meteorological data of each site in a study area and net
long wave radiation data in the study area, calculating total
radiation simulation values by at least two total
radiation correcting methods respectively, comparing all the total
radiation simulation values with a total radiation observation value respectively, and judging out the total radiation correcting method with the highest accuracy; calculating net
long wave radiation values by different net
long wave radiation calculating methods, then judging out the net long wave radiation calculating method with the highest accuracy, and calculating a radiation correcting formula of
net radiation; calculating the largest possible
evapotranspiration according to the radiation correcting formula, and calculating an aridity /
humidity index according to the largest possible
evapotranspiration. Compared with the conventional FAO56 model calculation method, the method provided by the invention has the advantages as follows: through modification of the conventional model
estimation method, the aridity /
humidity simulating effect is improved, the applicable area of the model
estimation method is widened and the model
estimation method is higher in accuracy and better in reliability.
