The objective of this work was to compare ET <sub>o </sub> estimated by different methods inside and outside a greenhouse. A class A pan (CAP <sub>i </sub>), lyismeter (L <sub>i </sub>) and piche tube (PT <sub>i </sub>) were installed inside a greenhouse, and another class A pan (CAP <sub>o </sub>) was installed outside. ET <sub>o </sub> estimates, obtained by CAP <sub>i </sub>, PT <sub>i </sub>, and L <sub>i </sub> were 81%, 56% and 86%of those estimated by CAP <sub>o </sub>, respectively. A simple linear regression showed positive coefficients (R = (0.96) for the L <sub>i </sub> and the CAP <sub>i </sub>,R = (0.95) for the PT <sub>i </sub> and the CAP <sub>i </sub>, R = (0.88) for the CAP <sub>i </sub> and the CAP <sub>o </sub>, R = (0.96) for the L <sub>i </sub> and the CAP <sub>o </sub>, and R = (0.82) for the PT <sub>i </sub> and the CAP <sub>o </sub>). ET <sub>o </sub> needs to be estimated inside greenhouses and it is possible to use lyismeter or piche tube to estimate the ET <sub>o </sub> inside the greenhouse. Equipment replacement would increase the available space inside the greenhouse. </span> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10.0pt;mso-ansi-language:EN-US"> <o:p> </o:p> </span> </p>}, number={1}, publisher={Mevlüt AKÇURA}
