The determination of the surface runoff depth in the microbasins of Mexico is carried out by estimation methods whose degree of accuracy is unknown, due to the information about temporal evolution of the precipitation and direct surface runoff is scarce. For this reason, it is necessary a revision of the accuracy of the available methodologies to e...

In recent times, the floods in urban areas in Mexico have occurred frequently and one cause is the presence of extreme precipitation events. Recently, part of the urban area of the municipality of Totolapan, Morelos was flooded by the river San Sebastian's overflow. Consequently, the aim of the present work was to carry out a numeric modeling of th...

Due to the high acquisition costs of drip tape for subsurface irrigation (SDI), in some places of Mexico drip tape made for surface irrigation (DI) is been used for subsurface irrigation, instead of SDI drip tape. However, effects in production, emitter discharge uniformity and its clogging vulnerability is unknown. The objective of this study was...

Un problema frecuente en la operación de canales de riego de México es debido a su limitada capacidad de conducción que casi siempre resulta considerablemente inferior a la de diseño. Esta problemática se aborda mediante un análisis teórico-experimental de la resistencia al flujo en tres canales de riego de México a través de los factores de fricci...

Con la finalidad de contar con información de apoyo para mejorar el diseño y la operación de un riego por goteo superficial, escaza en México, esta investigación abordó el estudio y la representación matemática del patrón de humedecimiento en un suelo agrícola con tres contenidos de materia orgánica y goteros de dos caudales. El experimento se real...
