Estimating the change in groundwater recharge from an introduced artificial recharge
system is important in order to evaluate future water availability. This paper presents an …

Growing populations demand more food, putting more pressure on soil productivity and
sustainability around the world. In western Texas along the Rio Grande Valley, the low …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) establish symbiosis with a number of plant species,
including pistachio, under a broad range of soil conditions. Here we present a fully factorial …

Irrigation return flow is an important and hard-to-estimate component of the groundwater
balance equation. In this study, irrigation return flow from a Triticale farm under sprinkler and …

Soil carbonates are dominantly present in dryland Critical Zone (CZ) and their formation
could lead to important long-term carbon sequestration in arid to semiarid soils if the Ca ions …

Increasing groundwater and soil salinity is a threat to the land and water resources in arid
regions. Global warming will likely increase salinity of dryland river systems. In order to …

In the case of Jordan, the paper demonstrates that intensive land use in arid areas imposes
tremendous pressure on groundwater. The comprehensive investigations of the …

To study variations in the field return flow, a field water balance model was established
according to the water balance principle, and the field return flow was simulated using …

Understanding and managing the impact of return flows to shallow groundwater from
irrigated cultivation of permeable soils have been seriously neglected by agricultural …

The Earth is undergoing climate change, and cities are challenged by climate-related
disasters. After progressive efforts of debating facts, reasons, and responders to climate …
