“…Measurements of irrigation water inflow, surface runoff and ponding depth were used for the calibration of the model. The water balance components of irrigation inflow, precipitation, surface runoff (above the bunds of 10 cm height), drainage below the root zone, and actual crop evapotranspiration, were estimated by the model at 2260, 158, 520, 432 and 1350 mm, respectively [37]. The daily variation of ponding depth, irrigation water amount and precipitation are given in Figure 1a, while the daily variation of surface runoff, drainage and actual crop evapotranspiration are given in Figure 1b.…”
