  • 212-Modeling Suspended Sediment Movement during Floods in Surface Flows. 
    Tsai, Christina W.; Man, Chuanjian (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    A stochastic diffusion jump model in response to extreme flows is proposed herein to describe the movement of sediment particles in surface waters. The proposed particle tracking model classifies the movement of particles ...
  • 226-Capability of Hydrus-2D Model for Simulation of Water Distribution in Irrigation Systems. 
    Ajdary, Khalil (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    Study of water distribution in the soil is essential for appropriate design of drip irrigation system. Water distribution in the soil depend on the hydraulic properties of the soil and emitter discharge. Experiments were ...

    Mishra, A.; Verma, H. C.; Kumar, A. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    An alternative canal delivery schedule during the dry season to improve the water regime in the canal command is suggested through model study. A distributary of Pun main canal system (a run-of-the-river scheme) in the ...
  • 232-Optimal Crop Planning Using Deficit Irrigation. 
    Bar, Muhammad F.; Islam, M. S. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
    In situations where increasing irrigation demand for growing high yielding varieties of crops is to be met, deficit irrigation might be a better option to cover more areas and thus extend benefits to more farmers with ...
  • 259-. Export and Import of Virtual Water from Different States of India Related to Food Grain Trade . 
    Kumar, Vijay; Jain, Sharad K. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Limited, New Delhi, 2009)
