Addressing climate change impacts on agriculture: Adaptation measures for six crops in Cyprus
(2020)The agricultural sector of Cyprus is seriously affected by climate change impacts. In the framework of the ADAPT2CLIMA project, the available techniques and methods implemented worldwide for the adaptation of six crops ... -
Assessment of water requirements of crops for the reuse of municipal wastewaters from the wastewater treatment plant at Patras, Greece
(2006)The possibilities of reuse, for irrigation, of the treated wastewaters produced in the biological wastewater treatment plant at Patras, Greece, have been examined. The practice of water reuse in soils, and cultivation, ... -
Comparing Two Hydro-Economic Approaches for Multi-Objective Agricultural Water Resources Planning
(2020)Hydro-economic models are valuable tools that can be used in irrigated agriculture in order to improve the understanding of the status quo of water resources, the role of water in agriculture, and the system behavior under ... -
A Comparison between Variable Deficit Irrigation and Farmers’ Irrigation Practices under Three Fertilization Levels in Cotton Yield (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Using Precision Agriculture, Remote Sensing, Soil Analyses, and Crop Growth Modeling
(2022)The major global challenge for the coming decades will be increasing crop production with less water consumption. Precision agriculture (PA) and variable deficit irrigation (VDI) are management strategies that help farmers ... -
Correlation of UAV and satellite-derived vegetation indices with cotton physiological parameters and their use as a tool for scheduling variable rate irrigation in cotton
(2022)Current irrigation management zones (IMZs) for variable rate irrigation (VRI) systems are static. They are delineated in the beginning of the season and used thereafter. However, recent research has shown that IMZ boundaries ... -
Crop water status assessment in controlled environment using crop reflectance and temperature measurements
(2017)Crop water status is an important parameter for plant growth and yield performance in greenhouses. Thus, early detection of water stress is essential for efficient crop management. The dynamic response of plants to changes ... -
Design of optimal irrigation networks
(2006)The problem of selecting the best pattern of pipe diameters of an irrigation network has long been given considerable attention by engineers when designing hydraulic works. The classical optimization techniques, which have ... -
The effect of different irrigation techniques on plant performance and seed quality in relation to fruit maturation and storage of different genotypes of pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum L.)
(2007)The effects of irrigation techniques on the plant performance and fruit yield of three cultivars of pepper (Tomatopepper, California Wonder, Pi-14) and a hybrid (Spartacus) pepper were studied. In particular, the irrigation ... -
Effect of modern irrigation methods on growth and energy production of sweet sorghum (var. Keller) on a dry year in Central Greece
(2007)The subject of this project is to estimate the growth and productivity of sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.)] var. Keller, under two different irrigation methods - the conventional surface drip method (two treatments) and ... -
Effects of Alternative Fertilization and Irrigation Practices on the Energy Use and Carbon Footprint of Canning Peach Orchards
(2022)Throughout peach orchards in Greece, plant protection, fertilization and irrigation are often conducted empirically, negatively affecting energy use efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG emissions). The aim of this ... -
Electrical conductivity and pH prediction in a recirculated nutrient solution of a greenhouse soilless rose crop
(2006)The influence of nutrient solution (1) mixing rate, and (2) time of use on pH and electrical conductivity (EC) of a recirculated nutrient solution used for the irrigation of a greenhouse soilless rose crop was studied. ... -
Evaluation of Water Resources Management Strategies to Overturn Climate Change Impacts on Lake Karla Watershed
(2016)The effects of climate change on meteorology, hydrology and ecology have become a priority area for research and for water management. It is crucial to identify, simulate, evaluate and, finally, adopt water resources ... -
Impacts of irrigation and nitrate fertilization scenarios on groundwater resources quantity and quality of the Almyros Basin, Greece
(2021)Irrigation and nitrate fertilization scenarios were combined and simulated for crop water irrigation demands and nitrogen applications based on experiments on crop cultivation practices. Two irrigation practices (deficit ... -
Integrated Hydro-Economic Modeling for Sustainable Water Resources Management in Data-Scarce Areas: The Case of Lake Karla Watershed in Greece
(2019)Hydro-economic models can serve as valuable tools to improve the understanding of system details, as well as to support decision-making and water resources management. However, hydro-economic models are not practically ... -
Irrigation and harvest time affect almond kernel quality and composition
(2002)The effect of irrigation and harvest time was studied with respect to almond kernel quality with two almond cultivars. Kernel quality analyses included kernel weight, moisture content, kernel oil quality and composition, ... -
Irrigation of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) with microcystin-enriched water holds low risk for plants and their associated rhizopheric and epiphytic microbiome
(2020)Microcystins (MCs) are toxins produced during cyanobacterial blooms. They reach soil and translocated to plants through irrigation of agricultural land with water from MC-impacted freshwater systems. To date we have good ... -
Laboratory experiments and estimation of cumulative infiltration and sorptivity
(2004)Soil water cumulative infiltration affects the environment by controlling the irrigation rate and consequently the water and pollutants movement through the ground. In order to study the cumulative infiltration in a sandy ... -
