Subsurface drip irrigation emitter spacing effects on soil water redistribution, corn yield and water productivity

Emitter spacings of 0.3 to 0.6 m are commonly used for subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) of corn on the deep, silt loam soils of the U.S. Great Plains. Subsurface drip irrigation emitter spacings of 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 and 1.2 m were examined for the resulting differences in soil water redistribution, corn grain yield, yield components, seasonal water use, and water productivity in a 4‐year field study (2005 through 2008) at the Kansas State University Northwest Research‐Extension Center, Colby, Kansas. The results indicate that there is increased preferential water movement along the dripline (parallel) as compared to perpendicular to the dripline and that this phenomenon partially compensates for wider emitter spacings in terms of soil water redistribution. Corn yield and water productivity (WP) were not significantly affected by the emitter spacing with application of a full irrigation regime

Irrigation performance and gross water productivity in furrow-irrigated ornamental tree production

In the ornamental plant production region of Girona (Spain), which is one of the largest of its kind in southern Europe, most of the surface is irrigated using wide blocked-end furrows. The objectives of this paper were: (1) to evaluate the irrigation scheduling methods used by ornamental plant producers; (2) to analyse different scenarios in order to assess how they affect irrigation performance; (3) to evaluate the risk of deep percolation; and (4) to calculate gross water productivity. A two-year study in a representative commercial field, planted with Prunus cerasifera ‘Nigra’, was carried out. The irrigation dose applied by the farmers was slightly smaller than the required water dose estimated by the use of two different methods: the first based on soil water content, and the second based on evapotranspiration. Distribution uniformity and application efficiency were high, with mean values above 87%. Soil water content measurements revealed that even at the end of the furrow, where the infiltrated water depth was greatest, more than 90% of the infiltrated water was retained in the shallowest 40 cm of the soil; accordingly, the risk of water loss due to deep percolation was minimal. Gross water productivity for ornamental tree production was € 11.70 m–3, approximately 20 times higher than that obtained with maize in the same region

Estudi del protocol de mostreig i de l’afectació de la pressió humana en 4 microconques del riu Estelí (Nicaragua)

Objectius generals: Diagnosi de l’estat actual del riu Esteli. Avaluar la metodologia i proposar en el protocol del monitoreig.Estudiar si les comunitats de macroinvertebrats aquatics es veu afectades pel grau de pressió humana.Objectius específics: Comparar les mostres preses en dos mesos consecutius, per conèixer si les comunitats varien prou com per, agafar mostres cada mes en comptes de cada dos mesos. Determinar la qualitat de l’estació en diversos punts del riu Esteli considerant tant els resultats obtinguts a partir de les variables físicoquimiques de l’aigua, com les variables biològiques. Avaluar si la pressió humana afecta de manera diferent els diversos grups taxonòmics de macroinvertebrats de l’aigua. Avaluar amb quin índex biòtic es posa mes de manifest la pressió antròpica. Estudiar quines son les relacions de les diverses famílies de macroinvertebrats amb els paràmetres físicoquimics de l’aigua, i determinar si aquestes relacions varien en funcio del mes de mostreig o de l’ús del sòl.

Sistema de reserves hoteleres on-line, basat en el protocol de comunicació OTA

L’origen d’aquest projecte neix en la necessitat de crear un sistema de reserves hoteleres on-line integral i amb connectivitat amb altres sistemes de reserves. S'ha optat pel protocol de comunicació OTA(Open Travel Alliance), es tracta d'un protocol de comunicació XML ideat per empreses del sector turístic dels Estats Units per la necessitat comuna d’unes especificacions tècniques que permetessin la comunicació electrònica de la informació
