Irrigated agriculture has expanded greatly in the water-rich U.S. northern lake states during the past half century. Source water there is usually obtained from glacial aquifers strongly connected to surface waters, so irrigation has a potential to locally decrease base flows in streams and water levels in aquifers, lakes, and wetlands. During the nascent phase of the irrigation expansion, wate...

this study was conducted to assess the effects of irrigation and plant growth promoting bactera on seed yield and qualitative characteristics of black cumin (nigella sativa l.) at the experimental station of the research institute of forest and rangeland, damavan region, iran. a split-plot experimental design, based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications, was used. i...

research on crop response to deficit irrigation is important to reduce agriculture water use in areas where water is limited resource. using drought resistant landraces with irrigation scheduling based on phenological stages in semi-arid and arid regions may provide an opportunity to optimize irrigation efficiency and water savings in these regions. in order to evaluate of yield and yield compo...

is considered endemic in hospitals and long-term care facilities, an ongoing debate exists about whether all identified cases of MRSA, particularly in asymptomatic individuals, should be treated. There is little disagreement, however, regarding the use of MRSA to treat symptomatic infections. Intermittent as well as continuous bladder irrigation utilizing various pharmacological agents has been...

The vigour and growth of seedlings of CRIC60 cultivar of coconut were studied in different irrigation treatments during the drought period, in a sandy soil in the dry zone. Nine irrigation treatments including a control with no watering were tested. Larger number of casualties were observed in the control while none in the irrigated plots. The best irrigation treatments in order of response wer...

BACKGROUND There is much to learn about the effectiveness of different methods currently used for the irrigation of open wounds. The purpose of this study was to compare various approaches in a survival animal model. METHODS We used an established goat model involving the creation of a reproducible complex musculoskeletal wound followed by inoculation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (lux) bacteri...

The efficacy of intraoperative cisternal irrigation using tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) combined with continuous cisternal drainage was assessed for the prevention of symptomatic vasospasm in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Seventy consecutive patients underwent direct surgery for aneurysm clipping within 48 hours of SAH and had computed tomography (CT) finding...
