Microsystems Irrigation in Niger, West Africa
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Small‐scale irrigation plays a crucial role in agricultural production in Niger, West Africa. Despite the prevalence of traditional irrigation microsystems (average size of about 0.1 ha), not much is known about water‐management ...
Groundwater Table Simulation Under Different Rice Irrigation Practices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most rice culture in southern Asia occurs on relatively flat soils with seasonally high groundwater tables. Groundwater is often available for use during the dry season for irrigation. Bangladesh is a southern Asian country ...
Large-Volume Samples for <b><i>Cryptosporidium</i></b> and <b><i>Giardia</i></b> from Small Streams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sampling the headwaters of tributaries for the parasitic protozoa
SCS Runoff Equation Revisited for Variable-Source Runoff Areas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Simple methods for predicting runoff from watersheds are important in engineering practice, particularly in flood forecasting and water-balance calculation. In this paper, we illustrate that the often used SCS runoff ...
Water Distribution Management in Small West African Canal Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The performance and progressive development of irrigation distribution and rotation methods were studied in two government-sponsored systems of Niger, West Africa. Systemwide water distribution was monitored intensively ...
Seasonal Risk Analysis for Floodplains in the Delaware River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Overland pollutant transport via surface runoff and flooding is a primary concern in the management of agricultural land resources in the Delaware River Basin. The Catskills is home to multiple water reservoirs that supply ...
Simple Estimation of Prevalence of Hortonian Flow in New York City Watersheds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study was a statistical evaluation of the prevalence of infiltration excess runoff (i.e., Hortonian flow) for undeveloped areas within New York City (NYC) watersheds. Identifying the hydrological processes generating ...
