Abstract: | The purpose of this work is to study the effect of a type of water-saving irrigation (WSI) on nutrient runo of paddy field. The
volume of surface drainage was maintained low by WSI. In particular, WSI e ectively reduced surface drainage in rain events. Model
simulation indicated that net runo load of total nitrogen (TN) from the paddy field was increased by WSI. Meanwhile, net runo loads
of total phosphorus (TP) and total organic carbon (TOC) from the paddy field was decreased by WSI. Because ponding waters of the
study fields were enriched with TP and TOC, WSI reduced runo of these nutrients by controlling the volume of surface drainage. WSI
could be considered an e cient method for reducing runo loads and could conserve water quality in an agricultural watershed. |
