Application of Least‐Squares Land Leveling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A least-squares land-leveling program written for use on microcomputers allows flexibility in design that was not previously available. The user can specify six different types of land-leveling conditions common under ...
Relating Crop‐Yield Response to Water‐Table Fluctuations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field data of water‐table depth fluctuations under cotton grown in Egypt arc used to relate water‐table depth frequency of occurrence to yield. Daily water‐table levels are measured. A multiple linear regression analysis ...
Simple Laboratory Measurement of Unsaturated Hydraulic Conductivity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple method called “upward infiltration method” is described for using common soil laboratory equipment to measure unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of soil samples in a short time. The method is based on measurement ...
Surface‐Slope Effects on Sprinkler Uniformity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The slope of the soil surface has a significant effect on water distribution from sprinklers. Field tests were conducted to quantify the effects. A ballistic trajectory model was developed to simulate precipitation data ...
Artesian and Anisotropic Effects on Drain Spacing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Subsurface drainage systems installed in soil overlying artesian aquifers should be spaced to handle both upward artesian water flow and normal downward seepage flow from irrigation and rainfall. Proper drain spacing depends ...
Drainage Design for Water Quality Management: Overview
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Drainage design for water quality management in irrigated areas requires use of hydrodynamic models that delineate flow paths of subsurface water moving to drains. Use of only traditional drainage design equations for ...
