Increasing Groundwater Salinity In The Northern Wheatbelt, R J. Mcgowan
Increasing Groundwater Salinity In The Northern Wheatbelt, R J. Mcgowan
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Every farmer in western Australia's northern wheatbelt will know of a groundwater supply, be it bore, well or soak. that has become increasingly saline. The groundwater may have become more saline over a period of 15 years or more, or have been noticed only recently. Inevitably, the bore will lie within an area cleared for agriculture. This increase in groundwater salinity may be associated with soil salinisation. Although researchers have some understanding of the processes causing salinisation of groundwater in the wheatbelt and the extent of the problem, little is known about the rates of salinisation and groundwater rise. A …
Draining Irrigation Areas, K S. Cole, J P. Middlemas
Draining Irrigation Areas, K S. Cole, J P. Middlemas
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Many irrigation schemes throughout the world have turned into unproductive saline flats and swamps. This dramatic change can occur within a few years of irrigation starting and has been part of irrigation schemes from earliest times up to the present day.
The main cause of this salinisation is normally excess irrigation water use combined with poor drainage. Any form of waterlogging will have an adverse effect on plant growth.
Analysis Of Arkansas Fur Harvest Records - 1942-1984: I. State And Regional Accounts, Gary A. Heidt, James H. Peck, Tiny Sheldon, Joseph D. Clark
Analysis Of Arkansas Fur Harvest Records - 1942-1984: I. State And Regional Accounts, Gary A. Heidt, James H. Peck, Tiny Sheldon, Joseph D. Clark
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Fur harvest records maintained by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission from 1942-1984 summarized the number of pelts sold by region (Ozark Mountains, Ouachita Mountains, Gulf Coastal Plain, and Mississippi Delta) and the average price per pelt for 16 furbearers. Analysis of these records showed that in the 1979-80 trapping season (the record year for both harvest and value both in Arkansas and the nation), the value of the Arkansas fur harvest ranked 14th nationally (2.12% of total national value). Fur harvests in Arkansas were high in the 1940's, declined in the 1950's and 1960's and then experienced a rapid …
Response Of Fishes To Revetment Placement, C. H. Pennington, S. S. Knight, M. P. Farrell
Response Of Fishes To Revetment Placement, C. H. Pennington, S. S. Knight, M. P. Farrell
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Routine fish sampling with hoop nets was conducted monthly from April through December 1978 along natural and revetted riverbanks on the lower Mississippi River near Eudora, Arkansas, to monitor changes in fish populations affected by placement of new revetment for bank protection. Eighteen species of fish were collected with four species comprising over 75% of the total catch. During the months prior to revetment placement, freshwater drum, Aplodinotus grunniens, was the most abundant (32.7% of the catch) species collected. Following in abundance were the flathead catfish, Pylodictis olivaris, (9.8%), common carp, Cyprinus carpio, (7.8%), and blue catfish, Ictalurus furcatus, (3.3%). …
Fluctuations And Relationships Of Selected Physiochemical Parameters In Dardanelle Reservoir, Arkansas, 1975-1982, John D. Rickett, Robert L. Watson
Fluctuations And Relationships Of Selected Physiochemical Parameters In Dardanelle Reservoir, Arkansas, 1975-1982, John D. Rickett, Robert L. Watson
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Annual and seasonal fluctuations and relationships are described for discharge, turbidity, chloride, total hardness, conductivity and suspended solids over an eight-year period in Dardanelle Reservoir. The parameters fluctuated rather widely primarily in response to seasonal patterns of rainfall. Chloride and conductivity were related and generally fluctuated together as did turbidity and suspended solids. Hardness appeared to vary independently of the others prior to 1979 then varied more closely with chloride after March 1979. Inherent differences between the Illinois Bayou arm and the main Arkansas River sections complicated the precise identification of any overall impact of power plant operation. No significant …
Sub-Surface Drainage Methods For Salinity Control, P R. George
Sub-Surface Drainage Methods For Salinity Control, P R. George
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Sub-surface drainage can control waterlogging and salinity of arable land by removing excess groundwater.
There are two broad types of sub-surface drainage: interception drainage and relief drainage.
The cost of drainage will depend on the specific design for the site. For relief drains the prime determinate of cost will be the required spacing. In general, clay soils of low permeability or seepage areas will need narrower spacings and will be harder and more expensive to reclaim than sands or areas only needing drainage of local water.
Drainage To Control Waterlogging, D J. Mcfarlane, T R. Negus, J W. Cox
Drainage To Control Waterlogging, D J. Mcfarlane, T R. Negus, J W. Cox
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Drains can be classified in several ways. Drains on flat land have similar drainage effects on either side of the drain and are called relief drains. Drains on sloping land intercept seepage water moving down hillsides and therefore have most effect on the downslope side. They are called interceptor drains.
Drains can also be classified as being open drains (that is, open at the ground surface) or buried drains (for example, tube drains).
Saltland Drainage : Case Studies, P R. George, R A. Nulsen
Saltland Drainage : Case Studies, P R. George, R A. Nulsen
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Over the past five years farmers have become increasingly interested in the use of drainage to overcome saltland problems.
Experimental work by the Department of Agriculture on sub-surface drainage includes tube drainage and drainage by pumping. The Department is also monitoring the performance of open drains installed by farmers. Major sites are at Esperance, Dalwallinu, Namban and Watheroo.
Some of these projects have been reported in an earlier issue of the Journal of Agriculture. In this article P. R. George, Research Officer and R. A. Nulsen, Principal Research Officer with the Salinity and Hydrology Research Branch, discuss recent results from …
Laser Levelling Land For Flood Irrigation, M D. Green, J. P. Middlemas
Laser Levelling Land For Flood Irrigation, M D. Green, J. P. Middlemas
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Since the introduction of laser levelling to Western Australia's South-West irrigation area five years ago, many farmers have benefited from this new and precise method of land-forming.
The use of lasser controlled earthmoving equipment to redevelop irrigated paddocks has led to improved irrigation efficiency and drainage. Less water is used for each irrigation, water is applied more evenly and less labour is needed. many older, grass-dominated paddocks have been reseeded to improve pasture species.
Eradicating Fruit Fly From Carnarvon, Kingsley Thomas Fisher
Eradicating Fruit Fly From Carnarvon, Kingsley Thomas Fisher
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Late last year the Mediteranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata Weidemann) was eradicated from Canarvon, Western Australia by using an intergrated programme of sterile insect releases and bait spraying.
The eradication marked the end of a four-year study on the use and effectiveness of the Sterile Insect Technique, a biological control technique which uses an insect pest against itself. such a study can be used as a basis for treating other threatening insect pests, such as the serious cattle pest screw-worm fly, should they be found in Asustralia.
Being a biological control method, the Sterile Insect Technique is an exellent …
Water Quality For Irrigation, P R. George
Water Quality For Irrigation, P R. George
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Although irrigation and salinity problems are frequently inseperable, there is a range of management methods that can be used to handle marginal quality water. Freuently these methods are simple, but require careful planning.
The wide range in tolerance of crops to salinity can be exploiter to ensure that appropriate crops are selected for the water available.
Because crops vary in their sensitivity to salt uptake in the leaves or the roots, watering methods can be changed to avoid problems. For profitable production enough water should be applied to ensure adequate water is available for plant growth as well as to …
Salinity Control In Northern China, G A. Robertson
Salinity Control In Northern China, G A. Robertson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
China has vast areas of saline land, perhaps as much as six million hectares. Some of this saline land is a result of marine influence in coastal areas and some is the resultof soil formation in areas with saline geological deposits and inadequate rainfall to leach out the salts at that time.
However, most saline soils in China are as a result of secondary salinisation processess induced by a hydrological imbalance resulting from over-clearing of the land or irrigation. This imbalance has produced rising watertables bringing the salt closer to the soil surface.
In this article, G..A. Robertson, Commissioner …
