Public ISBD Titre de série : Samaru Miscellaneous Paper, 44 Titre : Construction and prformance of a hydraulic weighing lysimeter at Samaru, Nigeria Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kowal, J. ; Stoskinger, K. R. Mention d'édition : Institute for Agricultural Research, Samaru/ahmadu Bello University Editeur : Institute for Agricultural Research, Samaru/Ahmadu Bello University Année de publication : 1973 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : CI-04511 Note générale : A critical factor affecting crop production in the savana zone of west Africa is the availability of water to crops. To estimate the amount of water available for crops it is necessary to know the amount of supply by rainfall or irrigation, the amount used in evapotranspiration can be estimated by measuring changes in soil moisture by direct sampling, with tensiometers or a neutron probe or by calculation from meteorological data using formulae such as that of Penman (1948) or thornthwaite (1954). Penman's method only estimates the evaporation from a free water surface and Thornthwaite's formula is not very accusate for short periods. This paper describes the construction and performance of an hydraulic weighing bysineter that has been used successfully at Samaru since 1968.
