A simulation model was developed to estimate the effect of deficit irrigation upon crop yield. The model was designed to provide relative yield estimates for numerous combinations of irrigation system, crop growth and irrigation management parameters. A daily soil moisture balance was used to predict evaporation and transpiration from which crop yields were estimated. Gross irrigation water req...

* Corresponding author. [email protected] Abstract – Previous studies have shown that irrigation can impact the near-surface climate, but none refer to the differences in the impacts of irrigation types such as flooding and spraying. In this study, we add a novel irrigation module to the recently released community land model 4.0 and simulate irrigation in two ways: first, by spraying water...

Introduction. This experimental study is to compare radiographs based on the penetration depth of the irrigant following three final irrigation techniques. Material and Method. A sample of sixty teeth with single roots were prepared with stainless steel K files followed by mechanized Ni-Ti files iRace® under irrigation with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite. Radiopaque solution was utilized to measure t...

A comparison of decision rules has been made for case studies of corn production using subsurface drip irrigation under three agricultural management practices (no irrigation, uniform irrigation, and variable rate irrigation). The uniform irrigation strategy appeared to perform the best than the other two management practices under different risk scenarios.

OBJECTIVE To compare intranasal distribution of saline solution delivered by three popular methods for nasal saline irrigation. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, controlled comparison. METHODS Eight healthy adult volunteers received nasal irrigation with 40 mL of isotonic, nonionic contrast material immediately before having coronal computed tomography to visualize distribution of solution in the p...

Built infrastructure for water and energy supply, transportation, other such services underpins human well-being socioeconomic development. A fundamental understanding of how design user strategies interact can guide important decisions as well policy formulation ensuring long-term viability in conjunction with improved individual benefits. In this work, an agent based model (ABM) is developed ...
