Study Notes
FAO Irrigation and Drainage Paper No. 56
- Discusses guidelines on the safe re-use of wastewater for irrigation purposes
Irrigation Design Criteria
- Proposed methodologies/strategies for development of location-specific irrigation design criteria by some authors
Soil and Water Terminology
- Information on soil and water terminology can be found in a specific document
Unlined Canal
- An unlined canal is a type of canal without a liner or coating
Water Balance
- Refers to the balance between water input and output in a system
Unconfined Aquifer
- The upper surface of the zone of saturation is served by the water table
Rainfall Pattern
- The type of rainfall pattern characterized by five wet months with more than 200 mm/month precipitation is known as a humid climate
Government Privilege
- The government grants a license or permit to use water resources
Well Log
- Provides information about the geological formation and water-bearing properties of a well
Reservoir Storage
- The active storage volume of water in a reservoir is the amount of water that can be used for irrigation
Crop Coefficient Ratio
- Measures the evapotranspiration rate of a crop relative to a reference crop
Crop Evapotranspiration Rate
- Is affected by factors such as climate, soil, and crop type
Application Efficiency Ratio
- Refers to the ratio of water actually used by the crop to the water applied through irrigation
Crop Water Requirements
- The primary component is the evapotranspiration rate of the crop
Effective Rainfall
- Directly contributes to the crop water requirements by reducing the need for irrigation
Leaching in Agriculture
- Refers to the process of dissolving and washing away nutrients and salts from the soil
Drop in-line Canal Structures
- Designed to reduce the energy of flowing water and prevent erosion in a canal
Effluent Discharges
- Involve passing wastewater into a body of water or land
