“…Studies throughout the state have shown that, under residential high-water-use conditions, smart controller-based irrigation systems apply substantially less water than conventional timebased systems without compromising turf quality (Cárdenas-Lailhacar & Dukes, 2012;Davis & Dukes, 2012, 2015aHaley & Dukes, 2012). Tailoring promotion of smart controllers to homeowners with excessive irrigation, however, is key to achieving significant water savings (Davis & Dukes, 2015b;Dukes, 2012). Even then, homeowner response is dependent on factors beyond the performance of the technologies (Morera, Monaghan, Dukes, & Breder, 2017;Morera, Monaghan, Dukes, Wells, & Davis, 2015).…”
