Toward field-scale groundwater pumping and improved groundwater management using remote sensing and climate data. Agricultural Water Management, 2024; 302: 109000 DOI: 10.1016/j.agwat.2024.109000 ...

The pumped groundwater is then applied to the fields using irrigation systems such as the one on the bottom showing an active center pivot system over an alfalfa field in Diamond Valley.

To understand the predicament in the Republican River Basin of eastern Colorado, you need to appreciate the volume of water ...

For example, in a scenario requiring use of more water-efficient irrigation technologies, water pumped is only 5% lower than for the status quo scenario, offering only minor improvements.

A common policy prescription for conserving irrigation water is to promote more efficient or "water-saving" irrigation technologies. We develop a risk-programing model to quantify the effect of ...

Farmers can potentially save up to 30 per cent of water through a smart irrigation plan, IIT Bombay claimed while citing a ...

Visakhapatnam: A recent groundwater resource assessment has estimated Andhra Pradesh's annual groundwater extraction in 2024 ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego report in a new study a way to improve groundwater monitoring by using a remote sensing technology (known as InSAR), in conjunction with climate ...

Sustainable rates of groundwater withdrawal in Oregon’s Harney Basin were surpassed 20 years prior to the time declining groundwater levels were generally recognized, a new analysis found.
