abstract the temperature of water entering the soil or variation in soil temperature has a direct impact on soil hydraulic conductivity via the effect on water viscosity. in this research, the time variability of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (ks) was studied. the relation between soil temperature and fluid viscosity with hydraulic conductivity were also studied. the necessary experimen...

Agricultural drain tile systems are a significant influence on the condition of wetlands and waterways. The influence of these systems is often difficult to determine since installation records are incomplete or were never kept. Using a modified decision class tree and raster analysis in ArcGIS, a model for predicting the location of land drained by subsurface systems was evaluated. The three-c...

Climate change and urbanization are converging to challenge city drainage infrastructure due to their adverse impacts on precipitation extremes and the environment of urban areas. Sustainable drainage systems have gained growing public interest in recent years, as a result of its positive effects on water quality and quantity issues and additional recreational amenities perceived in the urban l...

Highlights More diverted flow to the buffer does not necessarily mean more nitrate load removal. A design approach should incorporate a removal component maximize The newly proposed follows process-based estimate annual site-specific provided consistent regardless of site conditions. Neglecting exit head loss in process leads an overestimation and Abstract. saturated (SB) is conservation draina...

controlled drainage is one of the strategies to reduce negative environmental effects in conventional drainage systems. this study examines the effect of controlled drainage on quality and quantity of drainage water, specifically amounts of salt and nitrate in drainage water, and nitrate uptake by maize (sc 704) with sandy loam soil texture in karaj. the experiment was performed as a randomized...
