Accurate reference evapotranspiration (ET0) data are essential to water resources project planning and farm irrigation scheduling. Evaporation pans are widely used to estimate reference ET0. Via the pan coefficient (K p), ET0 is estimated from evaporation pan data. Four common K p equations (Orang in Potential accuracy of the popular non-linear regression equations for estimating pan coefficient values in the original and FAO-24 tables, unpublished report, 1998; Allen and Pruitt in J Irrig Drain Eng 117(5):758–773, 1991; Cuenca in Irrigation system design: an engineering approach, p 133, 1989; Snyder in J Irrig Drain Eng 118(6):977–980, 1992) to calculate daily K p coefficients to estimate ET0 were evaluated using a 10-year mean climate dataset for a subtropical climate (north of Iran). Overall results showed that ET0 calculated using the daily K p values from Orang (Potential accuracy of the popular non-linear regression equations for estimating pan coefficient values in the original and FAO-24 tables, unpublished report, 1998) provided more accurate daily, monthly, and annual total estimates compared to the others equations.  相似文献

Based on evaporation from a 20 cm diameter pan placed above the crop canopy, sprinkler irrigation scheduling of winter wheat was studied in the North China Plain (NCP) in the 2001–2004 winter wheat seasons. Results showed that pan evaporation (E pan,C) was closely related to actual evapotranspiration (ET) measured using weighing lysimeters. The combined pan–crop coefficient (K c,pan), the ratio of ET to E pan,C, was closely related to leaf area index (LAI ) and plant height. Data from the 2002–2003 season were used to establish the relationships between K c,pan and LAI (method A) or plant height (method B), and used to determine the crop coefficient (method C). ET computed by the three methods was compared with measured ET using lysimeters in the 2001–2002 and 2003–2004 seasons. Mean relative error of estimated daily ET by the three methods ranged from 20 to 30%, and the relative error in cumulative ET in the experimental periods ranged from 1 to 19%. Among the three methods, results from methods A and B were not significantly different from each other (P > 0.01), and were closer to the lysimeter data than results from method C (P < 0.001). Method B, being easier to measure, was recommended for ET estimation in NCP.  相似文献

The response of three durum wheat cultivars (C: Chen’s, V: Vitron, W: Waha) to irrigation was studied during 4 years in semi-arid Algeria (Chlef). The four treatments were NI (unirrigated), EI (early irrigation, up to heading), LI (late irrigation, from heading) and FI (full irrigation, over the entire season). FI increased rainfed grain yield (1,300 kg ha−1) by 270%, EI by 107%, and LI by 67%. The variety × irrigation interaction was significant each year. Under irrigation, cv. Vitron was generally the most productive cultivar while in rainfed conditions cv. Waha always resulted in the highest grain yield. Grain yield increased exponentially with seasonal evapotranspiration (r 2 = 0.741) and harvest index (r 2 = 0.873). Water use efficiency for grain ranged from 4.6–5.3 kg ha−1 mm−1 (NI) to 9.6–10.8 kg ha−1 mm−1 (FI) as a function of cultivar and irrigation, cv. Vitron and cv. Waha (full irrigation) and cv. Waha (rainfed) being the most efficient cultivars. According to the evaporation pan method, the seasonal crop coefficient (K c) values for the three cultivars were 0.64 (V), 0.62 (W) and 0.54 (C). The corresponding peak K c values were 1.0, 0.97 and 0.89, respectively. K c was closely related to leaf area index (LAI) and specific logarithmic relationships were calculated for each cultivar. Irrigation scheduling should be adapted to the type of cultivar in relation to its potential yield and LAI development pattern.  相似文献

Accurate estimation of reference crop evapotranspiration (ETo) is required for several hydrological studies and thus, in the past, a number of ETo estimation methods have been developed with different degree of complexity and data requirement. The present study was carried out to develop artificial neural network (ANN) based reference crop evapotranspiration models corresponding to the ASCE’s best ranking conventional ETo estimation methods (Jensen et al. ASCE Manual and Rep. on Engrg. Pract. no. 70, 1990). Among the radiation methods, FAO-24 radiation (or Rad) method for arid and Turc method for humid region, and among the temperature methods, FAO-24 Blaney–Criddle (or BC) method were studied. The ANN architectures corresponding to the above three less data-intensive methods were developed for four CIMIS (California Irrigation Management Information System) stations, namely, Davis, Castroville, Mulberry, and West Side Field station. The comprehensive ANN architecture developed by Kumar et al. (J Irrig Drain Eng 128(4):224–233, 2002) corresponding to Penman–Monteith (PM) ETo for Davis was also tried for the other three stations. Daily meteorological data for a period of more than 10 years (01 January 1990 to 30 June 2000) were collected from these stations and were used to train, test, and validate the ANN models. Two learning schemes, namely, standard back-propagation with learning rate of 0.2 and standard back-propagation with momentum having learning rate of 0.2 and momentum term of 0.95 were considered. ETo estimation performance of the ANN models was compared with the FAO-56 PM method. It was found that the ANN models gave better closeness to FAO-56 PM ETo than the best ranking method in each category (radiation and temperature). Thus these models can be used for ETo estimation in agreement with climatic data availability, when not all required climatic variables are observed.  相似文献

Water consumption of table grapevines (Vitis vinifera cv. Superior Seedless) trained to a large open-canopy gable system was measured during six growing seasons (1999, 2001–2005) using 12 drainage lysimeters. The lysimeters (1.3 m3 each) were installed as part of a one-hectare vineyard in a semi-arid region in southern Israel. Water consumption of the lysimeter-grown vines (ETc) was used as the basis for the calculation of irrigation applications in the vineyard. Three irrigation treatments, 80% (high), 60% (medium) and 40% (low) of ETc of the lysimeter-grown vines, were applied in the vineyard. Reference evapotranspiration (ETo) was calculated from regional meteorological data according to the Penman–Monteith equation. Seasonal curves for the crop coefficient (K c) were calculated as K c = ETc/ETo. Maximum ETc values in different seasons ranged from 7.26 to 8.59 mm day−1 and seasonal ETc (from DOY 91 through DOY 304) ranged from 1,087 to 1,348 mm over the six growing seasons. Leaf area index (LAI) was measured monthly using the SunScan Canopy Analysis System. Maximum LAI ranged from 4.2 to 6.2 m2 m−2 for the 2002–2005 seasons. A second-order polynomial curve relating K c to LAI (R2 = 0.907, P < 0.0001) is proposed as the basis for efficient irrigation management. The effects of the irrigation treatments on canopy growth and yield are presented. The high ETc and K c values that were observed are explained by the wide canopy layout that characterize the large open-gable trellis system.  相似文献

A 3-D hydraulic model was developed for computing velocity profiles, surface velocity coefficients, and discharge under steady, uniform flow conditions for rectangular and compound open-channel cross sections. Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations, Reynolds stress equations, and kinetic energy and dissipation equations were applied in the model using the finite-volume method with the k–ε turbulence model. Many previously unpublished approaches to solving the numerical details of this type of hydraulic model are presented herein. Four different sets of Reynolds stress equations (one using the Boussinesq hypothesis and three algebraic stress models of varying complexity) were tested. Only one of the four stress models was successful in predicting the depression of the maximum stream-wise velocity below the water surface. The model was verified using data collected at the Utah Water Research Laboratory. A companion paper (Marjang and Merkley in Irrig Sci, 2009, in press) describes the application of this model to the calculation of surface velocity coefficients for the float method to estimate discharge in rectangular and compound irrigation canals.  相似文献

Soil water movement under a single surface trickle source   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Under a trickle source, the flow of water in unsaturated soil takes place from a disc source having a radius changing with time due to change in the rate of infiltration. To predict the wetting pattern below an emitter placed on the soil surface, an unsteady, non-linearised numerical model has been developed in an oblate spheroidal coordinate system. Using this coordinate system, the problem involving disc source geometry having radius changing with time, is simplified, as the disc is a degenerate case of an oblate spheroid. The results of the proposed model are in close agreement with the experimental results of [Taghavi, S.A., Marino, M.A., Rolston, E., 1984. Infiltration from a trickle irrigation source. J. Irrig. Drain. Eng. ASCE 110 (4), 331–341] and the numerical model of [Bresler, E., 1978. Analysis of trickle irrigation with application to design problems. Irrig. Sci. 1, 3–17] developed in cylindrical coordinates. The applicability of the model has been analysed for special conditions of trickle irrigation e.g. large time water application, redistribution of soil water after discharge is cut off or reduced, and basin irrigation with restriction of surface water flow.  相似文献

Seasonal partitioning of evapotranspiration (ET) between transpiration by grapevines (Vitis vinifera) (T gp) and by cover crops of a ryegrass/clover mixture (T cc), and soil evaporation (E s) was performed for a furrow-irrigated vineyard during the 1994/1995 and 1995/1996 growing seasons in south-eastern Australia. ET, determined with a water balance approach, averaged 622 mm. The ET rate averaged over the two seasons increased from 2 mm day–1 in spring (September to November), when it was dominated by T cc, to peak rates of around 5 mm d–1 in summer (December to February) when it was dominated by E s. T gp, determined with either heat-pulse sensors or the Penman-Monteith equation, attained peak rates of 0.75 and 0.98 mm d–1, or 6.2 and 8.1 l vine–1 day–1 in the first and second seasons, respectively. Total seasonal T gp of 109.1 mm (900 l vine–1) in 1994/1995 and 118.8 mm (980 l vine–1) in 1995/1996 constituted just 18 – 19% of total ET. T cc totalled 214 mm (34% of ET) in the first season, when pasture cover was sparse and present for 5 months of the growing season (September to February), and 196 mm (30% of ET) in the second season when pasture cover was heavy but present for only 3 months (September to November). E s averaged 49% of total ET over both seasons. At least 30% of water used for ET was contributed by antecedent soil water in both seasons. The crop factor (K c) was largely constant throughout the season with an average value of 0.48. The depletion pattern of soil water indicated that the vine explored the soil profile well beyond 1.0 mm depth and almost evenly up to a distance of 1.5 m from the trunk. Water use efficiencies for fresh fruit yield (WUE), i. e., the ratio of fruit weight to total water use at harvest,were 13.3 and 40.5 kg ha–1 mm–1 when based on ET in 1994/1995 and 1995/1996, respectively, and 84.0 and 211.1 kg ha–1 mm–1, respectively, when based on T gp. The T gp data were used to verify three models of vine transpiration developed in an earlier study. Models based on the green area index or on fraction of incident radiation intercepted by the vine canopy produced good agreement with T gp. The model based on canopy resistance performed poorly, indicating the difficulty of extrapolating the stomatal response to environmental variables from one set of experimental conditions to another.

The objective of this study was to test an artificial neural network (ANN) for converting pan evaporation data (E p) to estimate reference evapotranspiration (ET0) as a function of the maximum and minimum air temperature. The conventional method that uses Pan coefficient (K p) as a factor to convert E p to ET0, is also considered for the comparison. The ANN has been evaluated under semi-arid conditions in Safiabad Agricultural Research Center (SARC) in the southwest of Iran, comparing daily estimates against those from the FAO-56 Penman–Monteith equation (PM), which was used as standard. The comparison shows that, the conventional method underestimated ET0 obtained by the PM method. The ANN method gave better estimates than the conventional method that requires wind speed and humidity data.  相似文献

In 2005 and 2006, a study was conducted to determine the effect of subsurface and surface drip irrigation systems and to determine optimum irrigation water using six different irrigation levels imposed on muskmelon (Cucumis Melo L. cv. Ananas F1) under semi-arid climatic conditions. Irrigation treatments received 0, 25, 50, 75, 100, and 125% of class A pan evaporation rates. In 2005, average yield from subsurface and surface drip irrigation systems ranged from 16.2 (I 0) to 31.1 (I 75) t ha−1 and from 16.2 (I 0) to 43.8 (I 75) t ha−1, respectively. While in 2006, fruit yields for the same systems ranged from 8.2 (I 0) to 40.4 (I 75) t ha−1 and from 8.2 (I 0) to 38.9 (I 100) t ha−1. Regression analysis of the yield data indicated no significant (P > 0.05) difference between years and irrigation systems. The highest muskmelon yields from subsurface and surface drip irrigation systems were obtained at 83 and 92% of class A pan. Bigger fruits were obtained with optimum irrigation amounts for both of the irrigation systems. However, there was no clear indication of irrigation water amounts on total soluble solid and flesh thickness of muskmelon fruits.  相似文献

This paper presents the results of sensitivity analysis of FAO 33 method and its modified forms that were developed by Rao et al. (Agric Water Manage 13:25–32, 1988). Results show that positive error of PET and Ky and negative error of AET result in over predicting of relative yield (Yr). Sensitivity of Doorenbos and Kassam (FAO irrigation and drainage paper No. 33. FAO, Rome, Italy, 193 pp, 1979) equation (FAO 33 method) and additive form of Rao et al. (Agric Water Manage 13:25–32, 1988) equation is equal for positive or negative error of Ky and AET, but their sensitivities are greater for negative error of PET than positive error. However, sensitivity of multiplicative form of Rao et al. (Agric Water Manage 13:25–32, 1988) equation is greater for negative error of Ky and PET and positive error of AET. Error percentage on estimation of Yr by multiplicative form of Rao et al. (Agric Water Manage 13:25–32, 1988) equation arising from error of PET, AET, or Ky is less than additive form. In addition, calculated Yr by multiplicative equation is higher than additive form and the difference between two forms of this equation increases severely when water shortage increases. According to the results, it is recommended that multiplicative form of Rao et al. (Agric Water Manage 13:25–32, 1988) equation instead of additive form be used in optimization models and deficit irrigation planning.  相似文献

An experiment was carried out in a naturally ventilated greenhouse to study the relationship between banana (Musa sp.) plant transpiration (Tr) measured with load cells, reference crop evapotranspiration (ETo) calculated with five widely used models (i.e. the Priestley-Taylor, FAO radiation, Hargreaves, FAO Penman and FAO Penman-Monteith models) and pan evaporation (Epan) measured with a standard Chinese 20 cm pan. Microclimatic conditions were measured inside the greenhouse. Results show that vapor pressure deficit and air temperature had good linear correlations to banana Tr with R2 of 0.67 and 0.62, respectively. Among the five models tested, banana Tr and ETo calculated with the FAO-Penman model yielded the highest determination coefficient (R2 = 0.67), followed by the FAO-PM model (R2=0.63), the FAO radiation model (R2=0.52), the Hargreaves model (R2=0.49) and the Priestley-Taylor model (R2=0.47). Banana transpiration Tr vs. Epan yielded an R2 of 0.83, which is higher than the five models tested. In conclusion, the 20 cm pan can be useful for estimating banana Tr in greenhouses.  相似文献

Evaluation of crop water stress index for LEPA irrigated corn   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
This study was designed to evaluate the crop water stress index (CWSI) for low-energy precision application (LEPA) irrigated corn (Zea mays L.) grown on slowly-permeable Pullman clay loam soil (fine, mixed, Torrertic Paleustoll) during the 1992 growing season at Bushland, Tex. The effects of six different irrigation levels (100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, 20%, and 0% replenishment of soil water depleted from the 1.5-m soil profile depth) on corn yields and the resulting CWSI were investigated. Irrigations were applied in 25 mm increments to maintain the soil water in the 100% treatment within 60–80% of the “plant extractable soil water” using LEPA technology, which wets alternate furrows only. The 1992 growing season was slightly wetter than normal. Thus, irrigation water use was less than normal, but the corn dry matter and grain yield were still significantly increased by irrigation. The yield, water use, and water use efficiency of fully irrigated corn were 1.246 kg/m2, 786 mm, and 1.34 kg/m3, respectively. CWSI was calculated from measurements of infrared canopy temperatures, ambient air temperatures, and vapor pressure deficit values for the six irrigation levels. A “non-water-stressed baseline” equation for corn was developed using the diurnal infrared canopy temperature measurements as T cT a = 1.06–2.56 VPD, where T c was the canopy temperature (°C), Ta was the air temperature (°C) and VPD was the vapor pressure deficit (kPa). Trends in CWSI values were consistent with the soil water contents induced by the deficit irrigations. Both the dry matter and grain yields decreased with increased soil water deficit. Minimal yield reductions were observed at a threshold CWSI value of 0.33 or less for corn. The CWSI was useful for evaluating crop water stress in corn and should be a valuable tool to assist irrigation decision making together with soil water measurements and/or evapotranspiration models.

The aim of this study carried out in Van, Turkey was to determine the most suitable irrigation frequencies and quantities in summer squash (Cucurbita pepo L. cv. Sakız) grown under field conditions. Irrigation quantities were based on pan evaporation (Epan) from a screened class-A pan. Irrigation treatments consisted of two irrigation intervals (I1: 5 days; I2: 10 days), and three pan coefficients (Kcp1: 0.45; Kcp2: 0.65 and Kcp3: 0.85). Plants were adequately watered from seed sowing to first fruit emergence, then, scheduled irrigations were initiated at 5- and 10-day intervals.Irrigation quantities applied to the treatments varied from 279 to 475 mm; seasonal plant water consumption or evapotranspiration (Et) of irrigation treatments varied from 336 to 539 mm; and the summer squash yield varied from 22.4 to 44.7 t ha−1. The highest total yield was obtained from I1Kcp3 treatment. However, Kcp2 treatments had the earliest yield. Treatments irrigated with higher amount of water generally gave lower irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE) values than others. Et/Epan ratios of treatments ranged from 0.12 to 1.16. Moreover, irrigation treatments had significant effects (P<0.01) on yield and there were significant positive linear relations among irrigation water, plant water consumption, fruit traits and yield.In conclusion, Kcp3 treatment with 5-day irrigation interval is recommended for summer squash grown under field conditions in order to get higher summer squash yield. However, if the irrigation water is scarce, it will be suitable to irrigate summer squash frequently using Kcp1 values.  相似文献

Shortage of water is the most important limiting factor for crop production in the arid and semi-arid regions in Iran. More land can become productive by using partial irrigation at strategic times during the growing season. This may be accomplished if a proper index of crop sensitivity to water deficit at various growth stages is used. A theoretical procedure was applied to determine the savings in water and the economic benefit derived from partial irrigation, using a water stress sensitivity index for winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) in a dry region of Fars province in Iran. The results indicated that some water reduction is possible. In general, the suggested maximum allowable water reduction was unreasonably high for the sensitivity index (λ i ) proposed by Nairizi and Rydzewski. Their index is not applicable in arid and semi-arid areas. However, the field-derived λ i of Aryan resulted in a reasonable water reduction close to the field-applied water reduction to achieve a corresponding relative yield. Therefore, appropriate values of λ i for different climatic conditions should be used to calculate rational water reductions. The maximum allowable water reduction for spring barley was higher than that for winter wheat. The reduction increased as the benefit to cost ratio (B/C) was increased. Water reductions of 7 and 26% were allowed for winter wheat and spring barley, respectively, at a B/C ratio of 1.5. This corresponded to an 8 and 35% increase in cultivated area, respectively. These results need to be validated in more extensive field experimentation. Received: 9 December 1994  相似文献

 Field experiments were conducted for 2 years (1997 and 1998) on sandy loam soil in northwestern Botswana to study the effect of five levels of pan evaporation replenishment (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100%) on marketable yield, yield components, irrigation production efficiency and economic return of winter broccoli, carrot, rape and cabbage under a drip irrigation method. The highest mean marketable yield (2 years) of broccoli (19.1 t/ha), carrot (58.9 and 32.9 t/ha), rape (61.8 t/ha) and cabbage (97.2 t/ha) was recorded at 80% of pan evaporation replenishment. The irrigation production efficiency of broccoli (5.9 kg/m3), rape (14.6 kg/m3) and cabbage (23.6 kg/m3) was maximum at 80, 20 and 60% of pan evaporation replenishment respectively. Irrigation replenishment up to 80% of pan evaporation loss did not influence the irrigation production efficiency for total and root yield of carrot. The results revealed that a further increase in irrigation amount resulting from 100% of pan evaporation replenishment did not increase the marketable yield of crops but reduced the irrigation production efficiency significantly. The seasonal water applied and marketable yield of broccoli, carrot, rape and cabbage showed quadratic relationships (R 2 = 0.85–0.98), which can be used for allocating irrigation water within and between the crops. The net return increased with the increase in pan evaporation replenishment. The results revealed that the rape crop is the most remunerative, followed by cabbage, broccoli and carrot.

Prediction of annual reference evapotranspiration using climatic data   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
It is important to determine how well ETo can be estimated from easily observed Epan (free water evaporation measured by a pan) measurements and the other climatic data. Our objectives are to predict annual ETo with Epan data (with a calibrated kp (=ETo/Epan)) and with a 4-variable regression function method. The significance of the trends of Epan, ETo and kp series were detected. The whole data series (ETo, Epan, mean temperature, sunlight hours, relative humidity and wind speed) were divided into the early (L-5) years for calibrating kp and coefficients of a 4-variable function and the last 5 years for predicting ETo. From the results, significance of series trends decreased when using the modified Mann-Kendall (MMK) test compared to the Mann-Kendall (MK) method. For ETo, five out of six sites showed significant trends according to the MK statistic Z, and two sites were significant in trend combining with the MMK statistic Z*(j). For Epan, two sites were significant in trends according to Z, and zero sites were significant in trends combining with Z*(j). For kp, two sites were significant in trends according to Z, and no sites were significant in trends combining with Z*(j). Thus the calibrated kp can be treated as a constant when using the Epan method. The predicted annual ETo using the Epan and the multi-variable methods showed generally good agreements with the estimated annual ETo (based on monthly PM equation) with low relative errors (RE). Mean ETo values were well predicted by both methods. When using Epan method, RE ranged from −14.7 to −3.3% for Urumqi, from 17.6 to 21.7% for Xning, from 1.8 to 10.7% for Lanzhou, from 4.7 to 17.0% for Huhehaote, from −7.4 to 9.1% for Beijing, and from −8.6 to 2.3% for Changchun. RE of predicting annual ETo with 4-variable regression function were even lower compared to Epan method. The main error source of the predictions came from the deviation between calibrated kp and the actual kp of the predicted years when using Epan method and from random fluctuations of climatic data when using the 4-varible regression function. In conclusion, the MMK test was a robust method for trend detection because it considered serial time dependence. Insignificant trend of the kp series supports the choice of a mean value as the calibrated kp and for ETo predictions. The Epan method is recommended for prediction of annual ETo.  相似文献

Root length density (LV), mid-day leaf water potential (Ψ leaf) and yield of wheat were studied in 1983 – 1984 and 1984 – 1985 on a Phoolbagh clay loam (Typic Haplaquoll) and on a Beni silty clay loam (Aquic Hapludoll) in the Tarai region of Uttar Pradesh under naturally fluctuating shallow (0.4 – 0.9 m, SWT) and medium-depth (0.8 – 1.3 m, MWT) water table conditions with six water regimes: rainfed (I0); irrigation at cown root initiation (I1); at crown root initiation and milk (I2); at crown root initiation, maximum tillering and milk (I3); at crown root initiation, maximum tillering, flowering and milk (I4); and at crown root initiation, maximum tillering, flowering, milk and dough (I5). Maximum rooting depth (0.8 m under SWT and 1.05 m under MWT conditions) was attained at the dough stage (115 days after sowing, DAS) and was more strongly influenced by fluctuations in water table depth than by the water regime. For wet regimes (I2– I5), roots were concentrated at and above the water table interface and had greater horizontal development, whereas in dry regimens (I0 and I1), due to deficient moisture conditions in the upper soil layer (0.45 m) they invaded lower horizons and had a greater vertical distribution Ψ leaf was not significantly affected by water regime (I1– I5) up to 94 DAS during a wet year (1983 – 1984) and up to 74 DAS during a dry year (1984 – 1985), but was significantly affected thereafter. Grain yields with water regimens I1– I5 during a wet year and for the I2– I5 treatments during a dry year at either water table depth were not significantly different, but there was a (non-significant) trend to lower yield with increasing soil water deficit. Under SWT in I2, the average grain yield wsa 5130 kg ha–1 and under the I3 regime, 5200 kg ha–1. Likewise, under MWT in I3, it was 5188 kg ha–1 and under the I4 regime, 5218 kg ha–1. The results indicate that application of irrigation of more than 120 and 180 mm under SWT and MWT conditions, respectively, did not raise yield. Irrigation given as per schedule I2 under SWT and I3 under MWT conditions in the Tarai situation, appears to be more effective than a very wet regime (I5). Received: 9 December 1997  相似文献

Water distribution can be nonuniform along the furrow length under surface irrigation. This “down field” nonuniformity is combined with “inter-row” non-uniformity which is a consequence of differences in infiltration characteristics across the plot. Global nonuniformity of application depth causes variation of yield, drainage and nitrogen leaching. In addition to that, due to year-to-year variability of climate, irrigation depths range significantly (from 0 to 360 mm/season). The objective of this paper is to study the impact of the nonuniformity of irrigation-water distribution within a furrow plot on yield, water and nitrogen losses when climate variation is taken into account. Six maize vegetation seasons on a Chromic Luvisol soil in the Sofia region with varying irrigation requirements are considered. Irrigation water is distributed in relative terms over the plot at different levels of nonuniformity (coefficient of variation Cv ranging from 13 to 66%) by the FURMOD model. Water and nitrogen cycle and crop growth are simulated then compared at 30 representative points in the set with various “climate-irrigation nonuniformity” combinations by the CERES-maize model. It was established that non-uniformity of irrigation is not important in wet vegetation periods. The drier the irrigation season, the higher the yield loss and risk to environment due to nonuniformity of irrigation water distribution. In moderate and dry irrigation seasons it causes yield losses of 2–14%, significant variation (30% < Cv < 200%) of drainage, nitrogen leaching and residual soil nitrate over the furrow set. Surface irrigation performances can be improved by reducing lateral nonuniformity of stream advance.  相似文献

Seasonal evapotranspiration (ET) was determined for Sultana grapevines grown on their own roots (Own-rooted) or grafted onto Ramsey rootstock (Grafted), and irrigated with water of three salinity levels – low (0.4 dS m–1), medium (1.8 dS m–1) and high (3.6 dS m–1) – during the 1994/1995 growing season in south-eastern Australia. Transpiration (T) was determined from sap flux, soil evaporation (E s) with a model, and soil water (S) with a neutron probe. Total ET for the season was similar for both Own-rooted and Grafted, averaging 382 mm. However, Grafted partitioned a mean of 193.5 mm (50.8%) of the ET through T compared to 146.7 mm (38.4%) by Own-rooted. Daily rates of T were generally low and attained peaks of 1.2 mm (9.9 l per vine) for Grafted and 0.9 mm (7.5 l) for Own-rooted in late November, and changed very little until after harvest in February. In contrast to T, the E s rate was consistently higher for Own-rooted than for Grafted from November onwards, and at the end of the season totalled 237 mm for Own-rooted compared to 187 mm for Grafted. Differences between Own-rooted and Grafted in their partitioning of ET into T and E s were associated with their canopy development. Grafted had a higher rate of canopy development than Own-rooted, and in mid-season, the former intercepted about 50% more incident radiation than Own-rooted. The crop factors, i. e. ratio of water use to evaporative demand, based on ET were similar for both vine types with an average seasonal value of 0.25, but when based on T were 0.12 for Grafted and 0.10 for Own-rooted. The ratio of fresh fruit weight to total water used at harvest, i. e. crop water use efficiency (CWUE), based on ET, had a mean of 86 kg mm–1 ha–1 for Grafted and 43 kg mm–1 ha–1 for Own-rooted, and when based on T, was 165 and 115 kg mm–1 ha–1, respectively; however, supplementary data obtained during the 1993/1994 season, indicated a CWUE based on T of 294 and 266 kg mm–1 ha–1 for Grafted and Own-rooted, respectively. Salinity did not have significant effects on canopy development and water use for most of the 1994/1995 growing season. The study shows ET and crop factors for the drip-irrigated grapevines to be much lower than previously reported for this district. Received: 6 May 1996  相似文献
