Evapotranspiration: progress in measurement and modeling in agriculture
This article provides a focused survey of progress in crop evapotranspiration (ET) measurement and modeling, with particular emphasis on the aspects of interest to the irrigation profession. The significant advances in ...
Use Remote Sensing To Map Soil Salinity in the Musaib Area in Central Iraq
Salinity has constituted one of the major problematic issues for agricultural production in Iraq. It is hence essential to develop some rational and reliable approach to conduct salinity mapping and assessment. Recently, ...
Identification of potential rainwater-harvesting sites for the sustainable management of a semi-arid watershed
In the present study, the potential locations for constructing different water-harvesting structures in a semi-arid watershed located at Goparajpalli, in southern India, were derived using GIS in three stages. The locations ...
Combining current land use and farmers’ knowledge to design land-use requirements and improve land suitability evaluation
Land suitability analysis is very important to assess and propose the most suitable land-use options. The reliability of land suitability evaluation is controlled by choosing the most limiting land characteristics and their ...
Estimating Agricultural Crop Types and Fallow Lands Using Multi Temporal Sentinel-2A Imageries
Meeting the food and nutritional demands of ever growing human population will cause immense pressure on agricultural lands and natural resource bases across the world. This challenge can be met only by proper land and ...
Assessing the risk of flooding in Central Tunisia
Digital elevation models (DEM) can be used to derive a wealth of information about land surface morphology. When analyzed using GIS information about stream channels and watersheds it can determine the flow of water over ...
Assessment of the agricultural production with satellite earth observation – A case study in Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan
Assessment of the agricultural production with satellite earth observation – A case study in Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan (will updated once final manuscript is published
Assessing woody biomass in African tropical savannahs by multiscale remote sensing
Woody biomass production is a critical indicator in evaluation of land use management
and the dynamics of the global carbon cycle (sequestration/emission) in
terrestrial ecosystems. The objective of the present study was ...
Assessing Agricultural Water Productivity in Desert Farming System of Saudi Arabia
The primary objective of this study was to assess the water productivity (WP) of the annual (wheat, barley, and corn) and biennial (alfalfa and Rhodes grass) crops cultivated under centerpivot irrigation located over desert ...
Using vegetation indices from satellite remote sensing to assess corn and soybean response to controlled tile drainage
Controlled tile drainage (CTD) is a management practice designed to retain water and nutrients in the
field for crop use. CTD has shown promise for improving water quality and augmenting crop yields
but findings are often ...
