Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The study focused on modelling open channel flow in an agricultural ditch network. The objectives were (1) to set up a computational tool to explore the hydraulic impacts of water level control in a collector ditch network and (2) to test the effects of damming height and ditch flow resistance on the water level and its relation to field ...

Agroforestry Innovation through Planned Farmer Behavior: Trimming in Pine–Coffee Systems
Land, 2020 Knowledge transfer depends on the motivations of the target users. A case study of the intention of Indonesian coffee farmers to use a tree canopy trimming technique in pine–based agroforestry highlights path-dependency and complexity of social ...

Hydrological Factors for Phosphorus Transfer from Agricultural Soils
, 1999 Understanding and managing against phosphorus (P) transfer from agricultural soils to receiving waters is a multidisciplinary task in which the role of hydrology is particularly difficult to simplify. We review current knowledge to define the spatial and temporal controls on P transfer from agricultural soils via the various hydrological pathways ...

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Irrigation water supply is under scrutiny because of dwindling water resources. Most irrigation water in South Africa (SA) is transmitted by canals. Transmission water loss (TWL) accounts for 12% of the irrigation water losses in SA. Therefore, there is a need to investigate and understand the major parameters influencing TWL at Vaalharts ...

Hydrological degradation of automorphic soils in agricultural landscapes
Dokuchaev Soil Bulletin, 2012 The impoverishment of physical and water properties resulted from the use in agriculture for a long period of time is exemplified by soddy-podzolic, gray soils and chernozems. Alternation of natural (forest, meadow and steppe) coenoses by agrocoenoses leads to degradation of soils, impoverishment of their temperature and water regimes, water supply and

Clogging Analysis in Drip Irrigation Systems: CFD and DEM Approaches
Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Clogging represents a critical challenge that undermines the efficiency and sustainability of drip irrigation systems by inducing uneven water distribution and increasing maintenance requirements. In this study, the phenomenon of clogging in drip emitters was investigated via computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in conjunction with the discrete ...
