Optimal Water Management Strategies for Salinity Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Multi‐objective linear programming models have been formulated to evaluate the water management strategies for salinity control. The water management strategies essentially aim at minimizing irrigation return flow (IRF) ...
Improving Canal Water Deliveries with Auxiliary Storage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The temporal distribution of an irrigation water delivery and demand ratio was used to analyze the performance of an irrigation water delivery system in the Bhakra Canal Command in India. A high degree of mismatch was found ...
Water Use Planning for Alkali Soils Under Reclamation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method to determine optimal water use in alkali soils under reclamation is developed. The procedure involves a deterministic linear programming model for allocation of surface and ground water for irrigation of crops ...
Evapotranspiration and Crop Coefficients of Wheat and Sorghum
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wheat and sorghum are important cereal crops next only to rice in India and several other Asian countries. Improved water management requires accurate scheduling of irrigation, which in turn requires an accurate measurement ...
Rational Approach for Modifying Rotational Water Delivery Schedule
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An analysis of water‐delivery schedules is made based on a water‐balance simulation approach using a crop growth simulation model. Five rotational schedules of two, three, four, five, and six weeks were compared to an ...
