Block 1: Introduction to AgrohydrologyBlock 1: Introduction to Agrohydrology
HydrologyHydrology is the science which studies the circulation and is the science which studies the circulation and distribution of water near the surface of the earth: through distribution of water near the surface of the earth: through the atmosphere (evaporation, transpiration, precipitation), the atmosphere (evaporation, transpiration, precipitation), on the earth’s surface (rivers, oceans, small streams, on the earth’s surface (rivers, oceans, small streams, surface runoff), and below the ground surface (ground surface runoff), and below the ground surface (ground water flow, drainage). water flow, drainage).
AgrohydrologyAgrohydrology studies only that part of the hydrologic studies only that part of the hydrologic cycle which is relevant for agricultural purposes and deals cycle which is relevant for agricultural purposes and deals with the circulation of water through the plant, atmosphere with the circulation of water through the plant, atmosphere and the soil. A schematic presentation of the and the soil. A schematic presentation of the agrohydrologic cycle is shown in Figure i. 1;agrohydrologic cycle is shown in Figure i. 1;
The central unit in the agrohydrologic cycle is the part of The central unit in the agrohydrologic cycle is the part of the soil which contains crop roots. the soil which contains crop roots.
