This study analyzes the effects of irrigation modernization on water conservation, using the
Riegos del Alto Aragón (RAA) irrigation project (NE Spain, 123354ha) as a case study. A …

Rice cultivation in Europe is restricted to a few southern European countries. In 2015, the
rice-growing acreage of Italy and Spain together comprised around 75% of a total area of …

The HYDRUS-ID model was experimentally tested for water balance and salt build up in soil
under rice crop irrigated with different salinity water (ECiw) of 0.4, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 dS m− 1 …

The current state of science and engineering related to analyzing wetlands overlooks the
importance of transpiration and risks data misinterpretation. In response, we developed …

Long-term studies of the changes in soil salinity are scarce and most overlook individual
ions. Here, we assess changes in soil ionic contents using 42 soils repeatedly sampled …

Few studies have investigated the similar/different characteristics of regional environmental
changes induced by climate change and human activities (eg, irrigation, groundwater …

Soil salinity is a threat to crop production in the Senegal River Delta where salt intrusion
increases soil electrical conductivity and most of farmers had abandoned their rice farms …

A key issue for agriculture in irrigated arid lands is the control of soil salinity, and this is one
of the goals for irrigated districts when changing from flood to sprinkling irrigation. We …

Highly soluble salts are undesirable in agriculture because they reduce yields or the quality
of most cash crops and can leak to surface or sub-surface waters. In some cases salinity can …

Long-term soil salinity data are required to properly manage saline habitats. This study
presents easy procedures for comparing soil salinity profiles, which were used to assess …
