The correct option is (a) True

Explanation: Christiansen formula for pan evaporation is Ep = 0.459 R.Ct.Cw.Ch.Cs.Ce where, R = Extra-terrestrial radiation in cm

Ct = Coefficient of temperature

Cw = Coefficient for wind velocity

Ch = Coefficient for relative humidity

Cs = Coefficient for percent of possible sunshine

Ce = Coefficient of elevation.
