| description abstract | Although polyacrylamide (PAM) use for reducing soil erosion and increasing water retention is common in agriculture, research suggests PAM application may also be effective in reducing seepage in unlined irrigation canals. A polymer application test was conducted on a 457-m-long section of the Bordeaux lateral canal near Wheatland, Wyoming. Flow rating curves were developed by combining discharge and water level data, and the curves were used to convert real-time water level data into real-time discharge data. Falling head permeameters (FHP) provided a spatial method of quantifying seepage. Real-time stage discharge data showed a mean pretreatment flow loss over the entire test reach of | |
