In many regions around the world, groundwater is the key source of water for some
vegetation species, and its availability and dynamics can define vegetation composition and …

Plastic film mulching has been widely used to improve crop yield and water use efficiency,
although the effects of plastic film mulching on water, heat, nitrogen dynamics, and crop …

We developed a setup for a fully automated, high-frequency in situ monitoring system of the
stable water isotope deuterium and 18 O in soil water and tree xylem. The setup was tested …

Shallow ground water is a resource that is routinely overlooked when water management
alternatives are being considered in irrigated agriculture. Even though it has the potential to …

The occurrence of shallow saline water tables in arid zones provides for groundwater-fed
natural vegetation and for a substantial amount of irrigated crops' water needs. This is the …

The effect of water balance parameters and water stress on winter wheat production in a
specified environment and under different climate change scenarios using the CERES (Crop …

Limitations to agricultural productivity imposed by the root-zone constraints in Australian
dryland soils are severe and need redemption to improve the yields of grain crops and …

Biodrainage relies on vegetation, rather than mechanical means, to remove excess water. It
is economically attractive because it require only an initial investment for planting the …

This paper analyzes the effect of the shallow water table on water use of the winter wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) that has replaced alfalfa (Medicago sativa) on the irrigated lands of the …

Water scarcity and saline stress are primary threats for water use and agricultural production
in arid and semi-arid regions, such as the Hetao Irrigation District, China. The current study …
