Optimisation of AquaCrop backscatter simulations using Sentinel-1 observations

, 2023
In preparation for active microwave-based data assimilation into a crop modeling system, the mapping of daily 1-km AquaCrop model (v6.1) biomass and surface soil moisture to backscatter was optimised, using two forward operators, i.e.

The Effects of Planting Structure on Groundwater Depletion and Optimization Strategies in the North China Plain

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Planting structure drive agricultural water use and is critical to groundwater depletion in the North China Plain (NCP). However, the effects of planting structure changes on groundwater depletion are rarely quantified, and severely depleted areas are often overlooked in previous planting structure optimization studies.

Modeling Sugar Beet Responses to Irrigation with AquaCrop for Optimizing Water Allocation [PDF]

Water, 2019
Process-based crop models such as AquaCrop are useful for a variety of applications but must be accurately calibrated and validated. Sugar beet is an important crop that is grown in regions under water scarcity. The discrepancies and uncertainty in past published calibrations, together with important modifications in the program, deemed it necessary to
