Impact of Agriculture on Water Quality in the North Carolina Middle Coastal Plain
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water quality in the Middle Coastal Plain of North Carolina has been impacted by agriculture; however, the water quality impacts in these areas over time have not been studied in detail. The surface water quality of several ...
Modeling BMPs to Optimize Municipal Wastewater Land Treatment System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Nutrient simulations of a municipal wastewater land treatment system were performed using the ground-water loading effects of agricultural management systems model. A total of 33 best management practices (BMPs) were ...
Validation of Landscape Irrigation Reduction with Soil Moisture Sensor Irrigation Controllers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this project was to determine if automatic residential irrigation systems with soil moisture sensor irrigation controllers could reduce irrigation water application while maintaining acceptable turfgrass ...
Estimation and Analysis of Irrigation in Single-Family Homes in Central Florida
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: There are several studies that have estimated how much water is used for residential irrigation, principally at the national level, with outputs varying from 30 to 64% of total household potable water use. A methodology ...
Effect of Amendment Type and Incorporation Depth on Runoff from Compacted Sandy Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Increased runoff rates and volumes from urbanizing watersheds are generally attributed to increased imperviousness within the watershed. While pervious surfaces in urban areas are often credited with having little runoff ...
Effect of Temperature and Salinity on the Precision and Accuracy of Landscape Irrigation Soil Moisture Sensor Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It has been demonstrated that soil moisture sensor systems (SMSs) designed for landscape irrigation can save water. However, SMSs have not been tested with reclaimed wastewater. Both salts contained in the irrigation water ...
Expanding Disk Rain Sensor Performance and Potential Irrigation Water Savings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rain sensors (RSs) appear to be a useful tool for water conservation at a relatively low cost. However, little evidence related to RS performance and/or reliability exists. The objectives of this experiment were to: (1) ...
Analysis of Residential Irrigation Distribution Uniformity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Irrigation has become commonplace for residential homeowners desiring high quality landscapes in Florida. The goal of this project was to document irrigation system uniformity in Central Florida and to quantify distribution ...
Residential Irrigation Water Use in Central Florida
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Automatic inground irrigation is a common option for residential homeowners desiring high-quality landscapes in Florida. However, rapid growth is straining water supplies in some areas of the state. The first objective of ...
