Test of a microlysimeter for measurement of soil evaporation

Abstract: Quantifying soil evaporation is required on studies of soil water balance and applications aiming to improve water use efficiency by crops. The performance of a microlysimeter (ML) to measure soil evaporation under irrigation and non-irrigation was evaluated. The MLs were constructed using PVC tubes, with dimensions of 100 mm inner diameter, 150 mm depth and 2.5 mm wall thickness. Four MLs were uniformly distributed on the soil surface of two weighing lysimeters conducted under bare soil, previously installed … Show more

“…The microlysimeter is PVC pipe filled up with soil, installed between crop rows and weighted periodically to calculate the mass difference by evaporation during the period desired. Flumignam et al (2012) compared the water evaporation from the soil lysimeters and microlysimeters, and concluded that the use of microlysimeters is valid. Dalmago et al (2010) validated the use of microlysimeters for absolute measurements and relative values of water evaporation from the soil to compare the planting methods.…”

“…Four microlysimeters with diameter of 150 mm and height of 200 mm were used in the determination of soil evaporation and later determination of daily soil evaporation coefficient (k e ), according to the methodology proposed and adapted by Flumignam et al (2012). Soil evaporation (E ML ) was determined according to Eq.…”

“…Yunusa et al (1994) used a 1.1-metre-deep weighing lysimeter with a 2.27 m 2 cross-section to validate the Ritchie (1972) and Boesten and Stroosnijder (1986) E s models. Flumignan et al (2012) showed that there was close agreement between E s determined using micro-lysimeters and 1.3-metre-deep weighing lysimeters, respectively.…”
