Editat de Mohammad Albaji, Saeid Eslamian, Abd Ali Naseri, Faezeh Eslamianen Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 ian 2022
Features:
- Presents comparative analysis to aid in the selection of the most appropriate types of irrigation systems according to land characteristics.
- Includes numerous practical case studies.
- Offers parametric evaluation systems for irrigation purposes.
- Considers data from semi-arid zones, each with different sub-climates.
Focusing on semi-arid land, the book highlights parametric evaluation systems for irrigation purposes, along with the use of analytical hierarchy processes integrated with GIS to determine which systems are best suited.
