During a three-year period, we evaluated the profitability of a deficit-irrigation (DI) treatment in mature 'Lane late' navel orange (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb.) trees grafted on two different drought-tolerant rootstocks, 'Cleopatra' mandarin (Citrus reshni Hort. ex Tanaka) and 'Carrizo' citrange ... Read More
Recent developments of global models and data sets enable a new, spatially explicit and process-based assessment of green and blue water in food production and trade. An initial intercomparison of a range of different (hydrological, vegetation, crop, water resources and economic) models, confirms... Read More
1. Freshwater systems are subject to multiple stressors that include changing climate, changing land use, changing demands on water resources and changing nutrient cycles. Global trends suggest these stressors that impact on water availability will increase over the coming decades, and - ... Read More
The impact that different regulated-deficit irrigation (RDI) treatments exert on a 12-year-old orange orchard (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck, cv. salustiano) was studied from 2004 to 2007. The experiment consisted of a control irrigation treatment which was irrigated at 100% of the crop evapotranspir... Read More
