Soil infiltration refers to the soil's ability to allow water movement into and through the soil
profile. It allows the soil to temporarily store water, making it available for uptake by plants …

Infiltration variability is a major issue during the design phase and management for all types
of irrigation systems. Infiltration is of particular significance for furrow irrigation and other …

A zero-inertia furrow irrigation model with specified space solution was used to investigate
the effects of variability in furrow inflow rate and spatial variability in infiltration, geometry …

A spreadsheet model was developed to evaluate the performance of furrow irrigation that
accounts for soil variability and requires few field measurements. The model adjusts an …

Microtopography has long been recognized as one of the key variables in level-basin
irrigation performance, although little effort has been devoted to establish its relevance. In …

In surface irrigation, water infiltrates into the soil but is also transported over the soil; thus,
the spatial variabilityof the soil hydraulic characteristics is one of the variables determining …

Azero inertia furrow irrigation model was developed to run on an IBM-compatible personal
computer. The depth gradient term of the momentum equation is approximated by averaging …

A kinematic-wave furrow model with spatial variability of infiltration is developed to solve
directly for advance times. In addition, infiltration varies with wetted perimeter. During …

Afurrow irrigation system is economically optimized for maximum profit on both uniform and
nonuniform soil. Flow rate and cutoff time are design (decision) variables and a volume …

Average infiltration rates for large land areas can be quickly determined using a new
procedure for obtaining the coefficients of the Kostiakov equation. By introducing the …
