Other claims from this paper (11)
- Association ET/E pan increased linearly with ground cover and averaged 0.94 at complete ground cover under well-watered conditions.
- Intervention effect Drought restricted ET well below the potential level.
- Intervention effect ET showed rapid recovery following a vegetative-stage drought.
- Association ET/E pan was extremely sensitive to percent available water in the rooting zone, with a high threshold of 90%.
- Association ET/E pan was linearly related to fractional ground cover multiplied by available water.
- Association Root growth increased linearly through the season to a depth of 135 cm under well-watered conditions.
- Association Root growth was restricted greatly under dry conditions.
- Association Relative seed yield was linearly related to relative water use from early flowering to harvest.
- Intervention effect WUE generally increased with vegetative-stage drought.
- Intervention effect WUE was reduced by flowering-stage and late-season droughts.
- Intervention effect WUE decreased with further reductions in irrigation level.
