Spatio-temporal variation of wheat and silage maize water requirement using CGMS model

Spatio-Temporal Variation of Suspended Sediment Concentration at Downstream of a Sand Mine

The growing population led to greater human need to use natural resources such as sand and gravel mines. Direct removal of sands from the bed river leads to increase suspended sediment concentrations in downstream of harvested area and creates other problems viz. filling reservoirs, change in hydraulic characteristics of the channel and environmental damages. However, the range of temporal and ...

Quantifying Spatio-Temporal Variation of Invasion Spread

The spread of invasive species can have far reaching environmental and ecological consequences. Understanding invasion spread patterns and the underlying process driving invasions are key to predicting and managing invasions. We develop a set of statistical methods to characterize local spread properties and demonstrate their application using historical data on the spread of the gypsy moth, Ly...

Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of Maize Yield Water Constraints under Climate Change in Spain

Many studies have analyzed the impact of climate change on crop productivity, but comparing the performance of water management systems has rarely been explored. Because water supply and crop demand in agro-systems may be affected by global climate change in shaping the spatial patterns of agricultural production, we should evaluate how and where irrigation practices are effective in mitigating...

Estimation of crop water requirement in rice-wheat system from multi- temporal AWIFS satellite data

The present study investigates remote sensing based approach of large-area crop water requirement using vegetation indices as proxy indicator of crop coefficient (Kc). This study is an attempt to estimate the reasonably proper Kc for lowland rice and wheat and subsequently crop evapotranspiration (ETc) in rice-wheat system using multitemporal IRS P6-AWiFS data integrated with meteorological dat...

Assessment of spatio-temporal variations of surface water quality and prioritization of pollution Sources (case Study: Talar Watershed, Mazandaran province)

Spatio-temporal changes of water quality variables in a highly disturbed river

Quality of river varies widely depending on the land use in the catchment and environmental factors. Many rivers in developing countries are unhealthy because they contain harmful physical, chemical and biological agents. Zanjanrud River, located in Zanjan Province, Iran, where recently faced human intervention needs a regular monitoring from upstream to downstream for sustainable management. H...
