Water-Use Efficiency and Productivity Improvements in Surface Irrigation Systems
Carlos Chávez,Isaías Limón-Jiménez,Baldemar Espinoza-Alcántara,Jacobo Alejandro López-Hernández,Emilio Bárcenas-Ferruzca,J. J. Trejo-Alonso +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied a methodology applied to gravity irrigation systems to increase the water-use efficiency (WUE) of three crops, namely, barley, corn, and sorghum, in an irrigation district.

Design and evaluation of surface irrigation systems applying an analytical formula in the irrigation district 085, La Begoña, Mexico
Carlos Chávez,Carlos Fuentes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the optimum expense that can be put in each furrow during an irrigation event under the hypothesis that with this expense, the historical water depths applied in the evaluated plots can be reduced.

Analytic Representation of the Optimal Flow for Gravity Irrigation
Carlos Fuentes,Carlos Chávez +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived an analytic representation of the optimal irrigation flow depending on the border length, hydrodynamic properties, and soil moisture constants, with high values of the coefficient of uniformity.

Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity Estimation Using Artificial Neural Networks
J. J. Trejo-Alonso,Carlos Fuentes,Carlos Chávez,Antonio Quevedo,Alfonso Gutierrez-Lopez,Brandon González-Correa +5 more
TL;DR: This work constructs several artificial neural networks to calculate the saturated hydraulic conductivity (KS) using a database with 900 measured samples obtained from the Irrigation District 023, in San Juan del Rio, Queretaro, Mexico, and finds that reducing the amount of the input data offered better results.

Modeling of Artificial Groundwater Recharge by Wells: A Model Stratified Porous Medium
Carlos Fuentes,Carlos Chávez,Antonio Quevedo,J. J. Trejo-Alonso,Sebastián Fuentes +4 more
- 01 Oct 2020
TL;DR: In this article, the amount of infiltrated water by a well is modeled using a stratified media of the porous media methodology, which can help decision-making by evaluating the cost benefit of the construction of wells to a certain location for the recharge of aquifers.
