[1] This study examined daily, seasonal, and interannual variations in CH4 emissions at a temperate peatland over a 5-year period. We measured net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE), CH4 flux, water table depth, peat temperature, and meteorological parameters weekly from the summers (1 May to 31 August) of 2000 through 2004 at Sallie’s Fen in southeastern New Hampshire, United States. Significant int...

due to the important role of subsurface drainage in managing the ground water level, there are many researches focused on finding a new and more economic way to develop subsurface drainage technologies. lack of proper drainage system in northern iran has caused huge implantation of rice and it is impossible to have second implantation in this region. one reason of insufficiency of current drain...

Aeolian transport in coastal areas can be significantly affected by the presence of an exposed water table. In some dune fields, such as in Lençóis Maranhenses, northeastern Brazil, the water table oscillates in response to seasonal changes of rainfall and rates of evapotranspiration, rising above the ground during the wet season and sinking below in the dry period. Understanding dune mobility ...

Abstract: point of view. In this study, a shaking-table was used for concentrating a manganese ore sample from the Ghasem Abadarea in Kerman, Iran. Experiments were designed by using LThe influence of each variable and their interactions on the operation of the device was studied. The variables underinvestigation were: table slope, table frequency, water flowrate, feed rate, and particle size. ...

The response of the water table of an intertidal salt marsh in NW England has been investigated. During neap tides, water seeps upward from the underlying sand-silt-clay interface. This effect continues as the marsh is overtopped during spring tides but is then dwarfed by penetration of water downward from the surface. Under “typical conditions” the delay between high water in the river and max...

Measurements of evaporation were made from July to November 1999 using the eddy correlation method on two wetland types – wet grassland and reedbeds – in south west England. The evaporative water use of a reed bed exceeded that of the grassland wetland by 15% (or 50mm over the 5 months). The evaporation rates at both sites exceed of the Penman Potential Evaporation estimates calculated for this...

A water-table dependent reservoir model to investigate the effect of drought and vascular plant invasion on peatland hydrology. Author manuscript, published in "Journal of Hydrology (2013) 32 p." 2 ABSTRACT: This paper investigates the water table dynamics in a peatland showing a wide range of water table fluctuations. A reservoir model of water table fluctuations in a double-porosity peat is p...
