Abstract Over a four‐year period (1997–2000), soil loss and surface‐runoff patterns were monitored in hillside erosion plots with almond trees under different plant‐cover strips (thyme, barley lentils) on the south flank of Sierra Nevada (Lanjaron) south‐eastern Spain. The (580 m a.s.l.), located 35 per cent slope, 144 2 (24 m×6 m) area. strips, 3 wide, ran across slope. most effective plant cover proved to be thyme, reducing by 97 runoff 91 cent, compared bare soil. Barley reduced 87 59...
The continuous monitoring of crop water status is key to the sustainable management stress situations. Two deficit irrigation (DI) treatments were studied during maximum evapotranspirative demand period in an orange orchard (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb. cv. Navelina): sustained irrigated at 55% evapotranspiration (ETC), and low-frequency treatment, which plants according stem potential midday (Ψstem). Additionally, a control treatment 100% ETC was established. daily canopy temperature (TC)...
Different tools are being implemented in order to improve the water management agricultural irrigated areas of semiarid environments. Thermography has been progressively introduced as a promising technique for irrigation scheduling and assessing crop-water status, especially when deficit is implemented. However, an important limitation related cost actual cameras, this severe its practical usage by farmers technicians. This work evaluates potential robustness thermal imaging camera that...
As a network of researchers we release an open-access database (EUSEDcollab) water discharge and suspended sediment yield time series records collected in small to medium sized catchments Europe. EUSEDcollab is compiled overcome the scarcity data at relevant spatial scales for studies on runoff, soil loss by erosion delivery. Multi-source measurement from numerous institutions were harmonised into common metadata structure. Data reuse facilitated through accompanying descriptors providing...
The implementation of soil conservation measures is essential to promote sustainable crop production in the Mediterranean region. In an organic rainfed almond orchard located Lanjarón (SE, Spain), a study carried out during 2016–2021 analyzed influence different management strategies (SMSs) (TT, traditional tillage; NT, no VF, cover Vicia faba; VS, sativa; VS-VE, sativa and ervilia) on some selected physical (bulk density, available water content, aggregate stability), chemical (pH,...
Introduction. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a crop of major economic impor- tance in the provinces Malaga and Granada (SE Spain). A field experiment on mango trees was designed to determine optimum irrigation scheduling over three seasons. The aim evaluate impact sustained-deficit (SDI) strategies fruit yield quality, tree growth, mineral status under Mediterranean subtropical climate. Materials methods. Three treatments were applied trees: SDI-1 (33% ETc), SDI-2 (50% ETc) SDI-3 (75% ETc)....
