This paper presents an exhaustive review of global croplands and their water use, for the end of last millennium, mapped using remote sensing and non-remote sensing approaches by world’s leading researchers on the subject. A comparison at country scale of global cropland area estimated by these studies had a high R-value of 0.89–0.94. The global cropland area estimates amongst different studies...

Soil permeability and soil salinity are considered the most important elements affecting agriculture in arid areas. To analyze and visualize solute transport and soil salinity distribution mechanisms, dye tracer and an electromagnetic device (W.E.T Probe) were used. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of separate clayey patches (spots) exist in loamy sand soil on both of soil...

INTRODUCTION Many clinical anatomy studies have looked into how variations in the acromion, coracoacromial ligament (CAL) and subacromial space are associated with rotator cuff injuries. However, no study up to now had defined anatomically the fibro-osseous canal that confines the supraspinatus muscle in the subcoracoacromial space. Through an anatomical study of the scapula, we defined the bon...

We have comparatively studied the dynamics of malaria transmission in the villages of Mokolo-Douvar located in the rural area with traditional agriculture and Gounougou irrigated rice area, in 2004 August and November and 2006 May and October, to assess vectors biting habits, and malaria inoculation rate and malaria parasite prevalence in cohort of children from 0 to 15 years. Mosquitoes were c...

Volume based pricing in irrigation is an important application method solving excessive and illegal water use problems. It essential to a properly selected meter accurately measure the amount of water. In this study, system performance Kayack Water User Association (WUA) was comparatively analyzed for years 2012 2017. The prepaid has been used measurement Kayacık scheme since 2015. While it cou...

In recent years the cultural landscape has become an important issue for cultural heritages throughout the world. It represents the "combined works of nature and of man" designated in Article 1 of the World Heritage Convention. When a landscape has a cultural heritage value, important features should be marked and mapped through the delimitation of a conservation area, which may be essential fo...

Sediment loads transfer in hydraulic installations and their consequences for the O&M of modern canal systems is emerging as one of the most important considerations in hydraulic engineering projects apriticularly those which are inteded to feed the irrigation and draiange schemes of large command areas such as the Dez and Mogahn in Iran.. The aim of this paper is to investigate the applicabili...

There are pressing concerns about the interplay between agricultural productivity, water demand, and water availability in semi-arid to arid regions of the world. Currently, irrigated agriculture is the dominant water user in these regions and is estimated to consume approximately 80% of the world’s diverted freshwater resources. We develop an improved irrigated land-use mapping algorithm that ...

Estimation of reference evapotranspiration (ET0) and actual (ETc) is a key factor for estimation crop water requirement, balance irrigation scheduling. The FAO-56 Penman–Monteith equation has been accepted universally estimating (ET0). Considering the high spatial variation meteorological phenomenon limited availability such dense network data collection, application remote sensing GIS gained m...
