Résumé :
|
The text takes a very good and direct approach in combining environmental demands (evapotranspiration, leaching and irrigation water requirements) with moisture and infiltration characteristics of the soil and various hydraulic, economic, and physical constraints and requirements of pressurized systems. The text gives good thought to day-to-day operations of the various types of systems and to their maintenance requirements. Because this book covers only sprinkle and trickle design, it provides much more depth and detail than do general irrigation texts. The chapters on economic mainline design and center-pivot design are especially thorough. The chapters on trickle design address the wide array of problems which have led to the premature demises of a large number of installed trickle irrigation systems worldwide. This book is full of information. Procedures are direct and toward the target. There is no "filler" in this book.
