Basin-wide distributed modeling of hydrologic responses to irrigation management in the Wood River Basin, Klamath County, OR

Creator:: Owens, Joshua M.
Abstract:: The Wood River Basin lies upstream of Upper Klamath Lake, the main reservoir of the USBR Klamath Irrigation Project that provides irrigation water to 210,000 acres of downstream land. Water allocation became a contentious issue in 2001 when drought led to curtailment of irrigation deliveries to the Klamath Irrigation Project...

Using infrared canopy temperature and leaf water potential for irrigation scheduling in peppermint (Mentha piperita L.)

Creator:: Gallardo, Ivan T.
Abstract:: Several methods of infering plant water stress for irrigation scheduling are based upon measurements of the environment in which the plants grow. These measurements include parameters such as soil water content, air temperature, pan evaporation and incident radiation. It is hypothesized that improved estimates of plant water deficit can be...

Evaluation of the ownership, leasing, and residency restrictions of proposed amendments to the reclamation laws : three federal irrigation districts in Oregon

Creator:: Spies, Paul Andrew
Abstract:: The Reclamation Act of 1902, as amended, is the basic legislation governing the distribution of water from federal projects for irrigation purposes. In the three-quarters of a century since the passage of this Act, technological, economic, and legal developments have forced a reappraisal of the original intent of the Reclamation...

Hedonic price analysis to reveal value of water in irrigation : an application to northern Malheur County, Oregon

Creator:: Faux, John
Abstract:: Increasing water demand for growing municipalities, for water-based recreation and for fishery and wildlife habitat has intensified pressure on the existing resource. Reallocation of water from existing uses to other, higher-valued uses is receiving greater attention due to constraints on development of new water supplies. A key to reallocation is...

Mitigation of Microbiological Water Quality by Last Irrigation-to-Harvest Intervals

Creator:: Emch, Alexander W.
Abstract:: Foodborne outbreaks involving fresh produce have been on the rise since the late 1990's. Pathogens such as Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli are prevalent in agricultural environments and commonly travel between farms via irrigation water. The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) has placed an increased emphasis on microbiological standards of...

The Periyar-Vaigai project (India) : - a geographical appraisal of water resource development

Creator:: Vedanayagam, Edith G., 1926-
Abstract:: The Periyar-Vaigai project is one of the important water resource developments in South India, designed and constructed in part during the last decade of the nineteenth century, to accelerate the growth of the economy of Madras state. A noteworthy feature of this project is that the waters of the westward...

Estimated plant water use and crop coefficients for drip-irrigated hybrid polars

Creator:: Gochis, David J.
Abstract:: Estimations of plant water use can provide great assistance to growers, irrigators, engineers and water resource planners. This is especially true concerning the introduction of a new crop into irrigated agriculture. Growing hybrid poplar trees for wood chip stock and veneer production under agronomic practices is currently being explored as...

Evaluation of evapotranspiration and irrigation performance in Oregon south coast

Creator:: Sriprisan, Sirikul (Indi)
Abstract:: This study was prompted by the need for improving the efficiency of irrigation systems at the Oregon South coastal areas. Accurate information about evapotranspiration (ET) rates is essential for maximizing the efficiency of irrigation systems. Currently, ET estimates provided by Bureau of Reclamation AgriMet Program are derived from the Kimberly...

A farm-level economic analysis of water-conserving irrigation systems and commercial agricultural water transfers to instream flows in central Oregon

Creator:: Turner, Brenda
Abstract:: The middle Deschutes River between Bend, Oregon and Lake Billy Chinook typically experiences critically low flows during the irrigation season. Commercial agriculture in the North Unit Irrigation District and Central Oregon Irrigation District is one major user of Deschutes River water. The overall objective of this research was to estimate...

Estimating the value of irrigation water transferred to instream flow : A case study of Umatilla County, Oregon

Creator:: Ugrinska, Monika P.
Abstract:: Agricultural water supplies are becoming increasingly uncertain in the western United States due to elevated demands from competing water users, environmental restrictions on surface water withdrawals as a result of the establishment of the Endangered Species Act in 1973, and potential climatic changes. Since many rural communities in the West...
