Hydrological Drought Index Insurance for Irrigated Agriculture [PDF]
, 2017 Los riesgos de escasez de agua en sistemas de regadío son importantes en los países semi-áridos y es probable que aumenten debido al cambio climático. De ahí deriva el interés en ofrecer a los agricultores la posibilidad de proteger la estabilidad de los ingresos de las explotaciones de regadío frente a este riesgo.

Modeling of hydrological processes in arid agricultural regions [PDF]
Frontiers 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 ...

Artificial Neural Networks for Defining the Operational Parameters of Sand Filters for Irrigation
Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The difficulty in defining the working configuration during the operation of sand filters arises from the complexity of the relationships among the variables in the filtration and backwashing processes. The objective was to use artificial neural networks to model the pressure loss and removal efficiency of filtration in a commercial sand ...
