to evaluate the hydrogeochemical characteristics of karst water resources of oshtorankooh, chemistry details of springs has been considered as the most important evacuator of karst resources. this research has been performed to study hydrogeochemical nature of karst springs and their origin with an emphasis on the type of formation.  accordingly, five samples of the water of permanent springs o...

Abstract The global climate changes and their influence on agriculture in Uzbekistan were analyzed, including problems of irrigation water shortage irrigated lands the lower reaches Amu Darya with greatest due to repeated dry years. Additionally, recommendations for effective use resources conditions meadow alluvial soils salinization shallow salinized groundwater proposed subirrigation drip ir...

Rice is the staple food for more than half of the world’s population. Although rice production has doubled in the last 30 years as a result of the development of high-yield, widely adaptable, resource-responsive, semi-dwarf varieties, the threat of a food crisis remains as severe as it was 60 years ago due to the ever-increasing population, water scarcity, labor scarcity, shifting climatic cond...

A field soil water balance model is developed for non-ponded “aerobic rice” in North China Plain. Increasing water scarcity necessitates the development of irrigated rice systems that require less water than traditional flooded rice. The aerobic rice is an effort to save water in response to growing worldwide water scarcity with the pressure to reduce water use and increase water productivity i...

Sustainability of rice production under limited water conditions is threatened by increasing irrigation water scarcity. Therefore, physiological and morphological responses of rice to varying water stress management strategies should be determined. The physiological and morphological responses of a semi dwarf rice (Hashemi cultivar) to water stress intensities (mild and severe, i.e., short-dura...

Tribal people living in hilly areas suffer from water scarcity in many parts of the world, including India. Water scarcity adversely impacts all aspects of life, including public health. Implementation of an Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) can help solve the problems arising out of water scarcity in such areas. However, the knowledge about and views of the water scarcity suffer...
