Short-Term Water Use Dynamics In Drainage Lysimeters, Musa V. Dlamini
Short-Term Water Use Dynamics In Drainage Lysimeters, Musa V. Dlamini
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Turfgrass water use (seasonal turfET) and crop coefficients were determined and a mathematical soil-water balance model for non-weighing drainage lysimetcrs, which simulates the occurrence (timing and amount) of drainage, was developed. Pairs of non-weighing drainage lysimeters were used to determine crop coefficients for turfgrass in four locations in the state of Utah: Logan Golf and Country Club, Murray Golf Course, Brigham Young University (Spanish Fork) Experiment Farm, and Sunbrook Golf Course (St. George).
Daily weather data including air temperature, relative humidity, average wind travel, total solar radiation, precipitation, and average soil temperature were collected with an electronic weather station at …
