Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Wastewater has been widely reclaimed to irrigate crops where freshwater resources are scarce. Therefore, predicting the impacts of wastewater irrigation on soil moisture and soil salinity is critical for sustainable wastewater irrigation management. In this study, the denitrification‐decomposition (DNDC) model was modified to couple wastewater irrigation with a water balance equation (SALT‐DNDC). Secondly, the SALT‐DNDC model was verified against the measured soil moisture, temperature, and nitrous oxide emission during the barley‐growing season at Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. Third, the SALT‐DNDC model was used to predict the effects of one‐time and split wastewater irrigation with varying quantity and quality on transpiration and soil salinity. The results showed that split irrigation of wastewater with an electrical conductivity of 6 dS m −1 reduced the peak soil salinity from 52–55 dS m −1 to a range of 8–20 dS m −1 , compared to one‐time irrigation. Therefore, the split irrigation of wastewater could substantially reduce peak soil salinity. In this regard, optimal split wastewater irrigation with elevated salt concentration can limit soil salinity to acceptable salt tolerance levels for crop growth. The SALT‐DNDC model can simulate dynamics of split irrigation wastewater and offers a new tool for assessing the effects of wastewater reuse on soil salinity.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
