With the following I guess you can find what you need:

1 MJ m-2 d-1 --> 23.884 cal cm-2 d-1
--> 0.408 mm d-1
1 mm d-1 --> 2.45 MJ m-2 d-1
--> 58.6 cal cm-2 d-1
1 Wm-2 --> 0.0864 MJ m-2 d-1
--> 2.064 cal cm-2 d-1

Objet : [hydrologymodel] conversion
Dear all,
I have estimated monthly PET using Mintz-Thornthwaite method. The output is
in W/sq.m (watts per sq.m). I want it to convert from W/sq.m to mm/month
or m/month. I went through a lot of literature but I am unable to find the
conversion factor for it. Can u tell me the conversion factor or how to
convert it.
