A simulation study was carried out to describe effects of climate change on cropgrowth and irrigation water demand for a wheat-maize cropping sequence in aMediterranean environment Turkey. Climate scenarios were projected using dataof the three general circulation models—GCMs (CGCM2, ECHAM4 MRI)—for theperiod 1990 2100 one regional model—RCM—for period 2070 to2079. Potential impacts based GCMs data estimated A2scenario Special Report Emission Scenarios (SRES). The forcing theboundary...

This study was carried out to determine the impacts of climate change on aridity and land cover in Turkey. Data for future (2070s) change, according present conditions (1990s), were estimated from prediction results a regional model (RCM). The RCM, which developed Japan, is based MRI model. potential A2 scenario Special Report Emissions Scenarios (SRES). Aridity index, ratio precipitation evapotranspiration, computed by using measured data condition RCM years. Changes evaluated comparing...

This paper deals with the effects of pH, electrolyte concentration, and exchangeable Na percentage (ESP) on electrophoretic mobility (EM)/zeta potential (ζp) clay particles hydraulic conductivity (HC) clay/sand mixtures. The soils taken from Japan Kazakhstan were used for obtaining fractions. For EM determinations, suspensions prepared at a concentration 4 g per 100 mL distilled water (DW) or solution. mobilities measured using Burton apparatus water‐cooling system converted into ζp. HC...

The quantification of evapotranspiration and soil evaporation is crucial for agricultural water management. FAO-56 Penman-Monteith E-DiGOR models were used to compute reference (Eto) bare evaporation, respectively, at 17 meteorological stations South Korea, from 1980 2009. same parameters assumed all in order compare actual (Ea) rates jointly dominated by atmospheric evaporative demand availability, as well the size rainfall events. sensitivity type equations major climatic variables was...

Diurnal rates of net CO2 assimilation (PN) and soil respiration (Rh) in the summer were measured six Mediterranean ecosystems through an automatic continuous monitoring system. The sites include a typical evergreen Pinus pinea L. forest with two co-occurring sclerophyllous shrubs (Pistacia terebinthus Phillyrea latifolia L.), citrus (Citrus limon corn (Zea mays cotton (Gossypium hirsutum soybean (Glycine max L.) vineyard (Vitis vinifera L.). All exhibited similar behaviour that low water...

Sensitivity analysis of the soil-water-evaporation module E-DiGOR (Evaporation and Drainage investigations at Ground Ordinary Rainfed-areas) model is presented. The outputs were generated using measured climatic data soil properties. first-order sensitivity formulas derived to compute relative coefficients. A change in net solar radiation significantly affected potential evaporation from bare soils estimated by Penman-Monteith equation. coefficients positive, with a mean value 0.82. heat...

A greenhouse lysimeter study was carried out in Tottori (Japan) during August 2000 to explore the impacts of saline irrigation on water uptake by orange trees. Two lysimeters filled with sandy soil were used. Each planted a tree. During first half August, both (L1 and L2)[b1]  irrigated non-saline water. In second month, L1 (1.0 dS/m) L2 (8.6 dS/m). At each event, 60 32 mm applied respectively, when average content profile depleted 70% field capacity. Osmotic potential became more negative...

In this study, evaporation, drainage rates and water storage of two bare soils in the east (Batticaloa) west (Puttalam) regions Sri Lanka, were simulated using E-DiGOR model. Daily simulations carried out for each years during periods 1978 to 1987 Batticaloa 1998 2007 Puttalam standard climate data. The locations predominantly sandy loam and/or clay loam. Grass reference evapotranspiration potential soil evaporation higher, whereas actual was lower dry seasons. 10-year average annual 2069.3...

The hydrological components of a sandy loam soil nearly level in Chuncheon over 30 years were computed using the E-DiGOR model. Daily simulations carried out for each year during period 1980 to 2009 standard climate data. Reference evapotranspiration and potential evaporation based on Penman-Montheith model higher May August because atmospheric evaporative demand. Actual was mainly found be function amount timing rainfall, presumably wetness addition Drainage affected by rainfall increased...

Water balance components of a bare soil with slope varying from 5% to 30% in Chuncheon, South Korea, were simulated using the E-DiGOR model, which proposed an interactive way quantify runoff, drainage, water storage, and evaporation. Daily computations carried out during period 1980 2009 for identified soil-topography-climate combination. A strong correlation between measured pan evaporation calculated potential was observed (R^2 = 63.8%, P < 0.01) based on monthly data past 30 years...
