Modelling irrigated maize with a combination of coupled-model simulation and uncertainty analysis, in the northwest of China

The hydrologic model HYDRUS-1-D and the crop growth model WOFOST are coupled to efficiently manage water resources in agriculture and improve the prediction of crop production. The results of the coupled model are validated by experimental studies of irrigated-maize done in the middle reaches of nor...
