Assessment of irrigation physics in a land surface modeling framework using non-traditional and human-practice datasets

Irrigation increases soil moisture, which in turn controls water and energy fluxes from the land surface to the planetary boundary layer and determines plant stress and productivity. Therefore, developing a realistic representation of irrigation is critical to understanding land–atmosphere inter...
