Salt Problems from Increased Irrigation Efficiency
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Increasing on‐farm irrigation efficiency reduces deep percolation and generally increases concentrations of soluble salts in the root zone. Since more salt precipitation occurs within the porous soil matrix, the mass of ...
Salt Distributions in Cracking Soils and Salt Pickup by Runoff Waters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Detailed measurements were made of the levels and distributions of salts present in representative soil profiles and fields and associated tailwaters in the Imperial Valley of California. The findings showed that the ...
Salt Transport in Cracking Soils: Bromide Tracer Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cracking clay soils pose unique and complex water and salt management problems. Crack volumes greatly affect water and salt movement in these soils. The purpose of our study was to determine the effect of crack flow on ...
