Using GIS To Locate Salinity on Irrigated Soils
Deformation of Fill Slopes Caused by Wetting
Engineering of Controlled-Drainage Systems
Soil-water management by water table control (via a dual purpose subdrainage-subirrigation system) is becoming popular in humid regions of the U.S. and Canada. Controlled-drainage is an...
Evapotranspiration Data Management in California
This paper will discuss components of the California Irrigation Management Information System (CIMIS). CIMIS is an automated agricultural weather network operated by the California Department...
ETBC: Interactive Software for Blaney-Criddle Estimates of Evapotranspiration
ETBC is a menu-driven computer program which calculates monthly evapotranspiration (ET) using the USDA Soil Conservation Service version of the Blaney-Criddle formula, as described in...
Economical and Statistical Based On-Farm Irrigation Scheduling
Most irrigation scheduling techniques are not based upon the statistics of the irrigations or economics of irrigated crop production. Traditional irrigation scheduling is based upon average...
Importance of ET on Colorado River Water Quality
Salinity is a major problem in the Colorado River. About 37 percent of the salt loading is contributed by irrigated agriculture activities. Deep percolation and seepage from irrigated...
Influence of Irrigation on Subsurface Drainage
The influence flood irrigation has on drainage effluent in terms of discharge rates and water quality was analyzed at an artificially drained alfalfa field in Fallon, Nevada. Immediately...
