TL;DR: In this article, a lumped parameter groundwater balance model has been developed with this purpose and to assess impacts of various water-saving practices, such as canal lining, upgrading the hydraulic regulation and control structures, improving delivery schedules, and adjusting cropping patterns.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial and temporal distributions of soil salinization of Jiefangzha Irrigation Sub-district, the western part of Hetao irrigation district of Inner Mongolia in northern China, were determined through analysis of satellite-based remote sensing images.

TL;DR: In this article, a Soil Water-Atmosphere-Plant (SWAP) package was integrated into a groundwater flow model (MODFLOW) in such a way that the SWAP package calculates vertical flux for MODFLOW, while MOD FLOW provides averaged water table depth to determine the bottom boundary condition for SWAP zones.

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated methodology was developed adopting loose coupling of the groundwater flow model MODFLOW with ArcInfo Geographic Information System to assess the impacts of irrigation water-saving practices and groundwater abstraction foreseen for the year of 2020 on the groundwater dynamics of the Jiefangzha Irrigation System (JFIS) in Hetao irrigation district, upper Yellow River basin.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of biochar addition on soil properties, water and fertilizer productivity of tomato in semi-arid area of Inner Mongolia, China, and concluded that biochar is an appropriate rate for tomato production in the study area.
