Choice of representative period of observations of soil water regime under crops

ABSTRACT

We consider various methods of determining the representative period of observations for developing irrigation regimes: integrated difference curves, calculation of soil moisture reserves of different repeatability by a series of observations of different duration, and analysis of deviations of average values over different periods up to the entire growing season.

KEYWORDS:

• Soil moisture reserves
• dynamics
• irrigation regime
