An Integrated Agriculture, Atmosphere, and Hydrology Modeling System for Ecosystem Assessments [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019
AbstractWe present a regional‐scale integrated modeling system (IMS) that includes Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC), Weather Research and Forecast (WRF), Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ), and Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) models.

Agricultural and Biological Engineering / Eco-Hydrology - Purdue University

open access: bronze, 2011
The graduate student employs multiple types of data to develop and validate a new application of an existing model, SWAT, traditionally used in assessing environmental impacts. Many of these data types are generated by other students and, as no standardized policies or procedures for documenting, describing or organizing the data are in place, it is ...

Modelling Hydrological Processes in Agricultural Areas with Complex Topography [PDF]

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Agricultural intensification and soil mismanagement have been recognized among the main causes of soil erosion in Mediterranean climate areas such as the Arbia stream basin (Tuscany, Italy). This study aims at predicting soil loss from agricultural fields as it is essential for providing reliable information for prioritizing soil conservation measures.

Perspectives of Hydrologic Modeling in Agricultural Research

open access: yes, 2021
For decades agricultural research was done in the field or laboratories, but with the rise of computer science, hydrologic modeling became another essential tool for environmental impact studies. Many types of models can be used, each with its strengths and weaknesses in terms of accuracy, speed, and amount of input data needed.

Assessing the demand for hydrological drought insurance in irrigated agriculture

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2022
Concerns about hydrological drought risk and irrigation water supply reliability have grown in recent years due to the increasing demand for water for irrigation and other uses, and the decline in water availability due to climate change. Hydrological drought insurance hedging against water supply gaps can be a key instrument for adapting irrigated ...

Modeling of hydrological processes in arid agricultural regions [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering, 2015
Understanding of hydrological processes, including consideration of interactions between vegetation growth and water transfer in the root zone, underpins efficient use of water resources in arid-zone agriculture. Water transfers take place in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum, and include groundwater dynamics, unsaturated zone flow, evaporation ...

Hydrological processing of salinity and nitrate in the Salinas Valley agricultural watershed [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2021
AbstractRegime shifts of major salinity constituents (Ca, Mg, Na, K, SO4, Cl, HCO3, and NO3) in the lower Salinas River, an agricultural ecosystem, can have major impacts on ecosystem services central to continued agricultural production in the region. Regime shifts are large, persistent, and often abrupt changes in the structure and dynamics of social-

Performance of Drought Indices for Ecological, Agricultural, and Hydrological Applications [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Interactions, 2012
Abstract In this study, the authors provide a global assessment of the performance of different drought indices for monitoring drought impacts on several hydrological, agricultural, and ecological response variables. For this purpose, they compare the performance of several drought indices [the standardized precipitation index (SPI ...

The hydrologic behavior of agricultural watersheds

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1944
During the past decade there has been much discussion, pro and con, with regard to the effects of agricultural operations upon the amount and regimen of runoff from watersheds. The problem becomes highly involved on large watersheds, because they are made up of various complexes of soil, cover, topography, and other edaphic features.
