abstract- in this study, effect of deficit irrigation with different salinity levels and planting methods (in-furrow and on-ridge) on nutrient and toxic ions uptake by rapeseed was investigated in a two-year experiment. the experiment was conducted at research station, located in the college of agriculture, shiraz university, i.r. of iran. results indicated that an increase in water stress leve...

abstract:background and objectives:in arid and semi-arid regions, salinity is a serious and chronic problem for agriculture. due to the improved methods of irrigation and mechanization this methods to increase water use efficiency and enhance the uniformity of water distribution in the field, is very important. main area of farming cotton in iran is about 150000 ha, which in kerman province mos...

This work utilized temperature-salinity (T-S) diagram to explore the physical properties of water masses during intermonsoon period. In doing so, the physical properties of water column, such as temperature and salinity are collected from cruise conducted in September 2002 and October 2003. Hydrolab instrument was used in the coastal water of Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia. The vertical water tempe...

A split-split-plot design with three replications in two years of 2009 and 2010 was conducted to investigate the effect of different levels of irrigation water (main plot), salinity of irrigation water (sub-plot) and nitrogen fertilizer rate (sub-subplot) on maize growth rate and gas exchange. Irrigation treatments were I1 (1.0 crop evapotranspiration (ETc)+0.25ETc as leaching), I2 (0.75I1)...

main perennial rivers of gujarat, tapi, narmada, mahi and sabarmatiare meeting arabian sea in gulf of khambhat. the out flow of mahi river intothe sea is decreased due to construction of dams like bajaj sagar, kadana, panamand wanakbori weir. so, tidal effect of sea and sea water intrusion is beingincreased on landward side. moreover, due to erratic nature of rainfall andimproper management of ...

An improved genetic algorithm was applied and examined to optimize the weights of a neural network model for estimating root length density (RLD) distributions of winter wheat under salinity stress. Thereafter, soil water and solute transport with root-water-uptake in a soil-wheat system were simulated numerically, in which the estimated RLD distributions were incorporated. The results showed t...
