Polymer-coated urea (PCU) is an important alternative to uncoated urea for improving nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE). Only a few studies discuss their utility for lowland rice systems. A 2-year field study was con- ducted to examine if nitrogen loa

The chemical composition of groundwater in the Jordan Valley, along the section between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea, is investigated in order to evaluate the origin of the groundwater resources and, in particular, to elucidate the role of dee

A digital-image-based simulation methodology is applied to evaluate the influence of heterogeneous porosity on the evolution of tracer concentrations in imaged tracer tests. Maps of computed tomography (CT)-number are calibrated relative to average p

Principal mechanical and chemical processes contributing to the observed spontaneous switching from net decrease in permeability to net increase in a fracture in carbonate are examined. The evolution of permeability, and related fracture aperture, is

We report flow-through experiments on a natural fracture in novaculite under moderate effective stresses (∼ 1.4 MPa) and temperatures (20–120 °C) to examine the effect on flow and transport characteristics. The efflux of fluid and dissolved mine

A fully coupled hydrological–mechanical–chemical (HMC) model is developed and applied to explain enigmatic spontaneous changes in permeability that develop within a fracture in limestone under simulated in situ conditions (Water Resour Res 2004;4

Flow in a rock fracture is surprisingly sensitive to the evolution of flow paths that develop as a result of dissolution. Net dissolution may either increase or decrease permeability uniformly within the fracture, or may form a preferential flow path

The vertical diffusion of NaI solution from a horizontal fracture into and within the surrounding matrix was tracked and quantified over time using an artificially fractured chalk core (30×5 cm) and a second-generation X-ray computed tomography (CT)

In this paper we report on vertical variations in the values of the effective diffusion coefficient determined on 19 chalk samples collected throughout most of the Eocene section (285 m) in the northern Negev desert, Israel. The dependence of the mea

Soil moisture and suction head in an irrigated orchard were continuously monitored by time domain reflectometry (TDR) probes and gypsum blocks, respectively, during and between successive irrigation events. On each side of the trees in the plot, two
