Conservation Agriculture Effects on Soil Water Holding Capacity and Water-Saving Varied with Management Practices and Agroecological Conditions: A Review

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Improving soil water holding capacity (WHC) through conservation agriculture (CA)-practices, i.e., minimum mechanical soil disturbance, crop diversification, and soil mulch cover/crop residue retention, could buffer soil resilience against climate change.

Simulation of the effect of irrigation with Saline-sodic water on Soil infiltration Rate changes with Kostiakov and Philip's infiltration model [PDF]

open access: yesرویکردهای نوین در مهندسی آب و محیط زیست, 2023
In order to evaluating effects of irrigation with saline-sodic water, we conducted three infiltration experiments in clay-loam soil in end-close furrow. We were using 5cm water depth every week, which had EC=12 ds/m and SAR=32. Experiments were done with

Monitoring infiltration rates with time domain reflectometers [PDF]

open access: yesWater Environment Research, 2019
AbstractThe current study determines infiltration rates in six tree boxes located in Louisville, KY, and analyzes the effects of season, age of the tree box, and depth on infiltration. Street and parking lot runoff enter each tree box through a curb cut.
