Design of Zero Slope Microirrigation Laterals: Effect of the Friction Factor Variation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Microirrigation has become quite a common practice in agricultural production in various parts of the world. To achieve the optimum (hydraulic and economic) system performance, designers are often faced with the problem ... -
Sprinkler Irrigation Pressure and Spacing Effect for Cold Protection of Strawberries
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Irrigation for cold protection in strawberries has been used for many years to protect plants from cold damage; however, large volumes of high-quality water are needed for this purpose. Based on computer modeling for citrus, ... -
Estimation of Furrow Irrigation Sediment Loss Using an Artificial Neural Network
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)The area irrigated by furrow irrigation in the United States has been steadily decreasing but still represents about 20% of the total irrigated area in the United States. Furrow irrigation sediment loss is a major water ... -
Curve Numbers for Olive Orchard Catchments: Case Study in Southern Spain
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)The curve number (CN) method is widely applied around the world to estimate direct runoff and the corresponding hydrograph of a rainfall event. However, there is no information on its performance in olive orchards on the ... -
Description and Evaluation of Zigzag Furrow Irrigation in the Inter-Andean Valleys of Bolivia
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Surface irrigation is the main irrigation system used in the inter-Andean valleys of Bolivia. However, the region’s steep terrain precludes the use of conventional surface irrigation methods. Zigzag corrugated furrows, the ... -
Closure to “Irrigation Timing for Wheat Based on Climate, Crop, and Soil Data” by R. P. Tripathi (May/June, 1992, Vol. 118, No. 3)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994) -
Discussion of “Interactive Irrigation Tool for Simulating Smart Irrigation Technologies in Lawn Turf” by N. A. Dobbs, K. W. Migliaccio, M. D. Dukes, K. T. Morgan, and Y. C. Li
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015) -
Regional Hydrological Drought Monitoring Using Principal Components Analysis
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)Drought quantification is a decision-making approach for water resources planners and managers. There are different statistical methods for regional quantification of droughts, depending on the event being regionally ... -
Closure to “Saline Water Use Prospects: Colorado River” by Michael B. Bessler (June. 1983)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1984) -
Command Area Water Demands. II: Water‐Demand Function
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1994)The cumulative water demand (CWD) curve was used for validating and calibrating the unit command area (UCA) model, which predicts the aggregate water demands of individual command areas for the entire crop season. During ... -

Stage-Discharge Models for Concrete Orifices: Impact on Estimating Detention Basin Drawdown Time
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Thick-walled concrete orifices are widely used to control outflow rates from stormwater detention basins. There are limited data on stage-discharge relationships for such orifices, particularly for low head and partially ... -
Solutions to Rectangular Sluice Gate Flow Problems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)This paper provides direct solution or iteration procedures to the following four types of submerged flow problems for rectangular sluice gates: (1) find discharge per unit width ( -
Soil Salt Accumulation and Crop Yield under Long-Term Irrigation with Saline Water
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)An experiment has been conducted to investigate the salt evolution process in soil and the response of crops to continuous irrigation with saline water under no artificial drainage from 2006 to 2013. A total of five salinity ... -
Effect of Temperature and Salinity on the Precision and Accuracy of Landscape Irrigation Soil Moisture Sensor Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)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 ... -
Flow-Measurement Flumes of Rectangular Compound Cross Section
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1995)A series of laboratory experiments were carried out in a flow-measurement flume of a rectangular compound cross section to investigate the effect of the throat width and step height on the values of discharge coefficient, ... -
Discussion of “<i>Water Management for Lowland Rice Irrigation</i>” by Fathima Z. Siddeck, Theo A. Dillaha, and G. V. Loganathan (August, 1988 Vol. 114, NO. 3)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991) -
Examination of 2‐D Groundwater Recharge Solution
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The analytical solution proposed by Rao and Sarma for predicting growth of groundwater mounds resulting from infiltration into bounded aquifers is examined for validity when the aquifer is assumed infinite in size. Rao and ... -
