摘要
A soil box was used to investigate the water movement and soil water distribution around subsurface drip laterals with two emitters in the presence of a thin layer of polyacrylamide (PAM). Sandy soil was uniformly packed into a soil box. The PAM was applied at a rate of 29.3 kg ha(-1) as a 0.01% solution by spraying it directly onto the soil surface at the required depths. With an operating pressure of 150 kPa and no PAM layer, the water consumption with a dripper line depth of 0.15 m was 12% lower than with a dripper line depth of 0.10 m. The greatest improvement in soil water-holding capacity after the addition of a PAM layer (47%) was observed when the dripper line was placed at a depth of 0.15 m under an operating pressure of 100 kPa. With a dripper line depth of 0.15 m and an operating pressure of 100 kPa, the average moisture content in the vertical planes below and above the dripper line directly increased by about 7.4 and 20%, respectively, with PAM layers at 0.25 and 0.30 m depths when compared with the moisture content with no PAM layer. The combination of a dripper line depth of 0.15 m, a PAM layer depth of 0.30 m and an operating pressure of 100 kPa will achieve optimal water management.
