This document describes how to use a double ring infiltrometer to measure infiltration rates of soil. A double ring infiltrometer consists of two concentric metal cylinders that are hammered into the ground. Water is poured into the inner ring and the rate of infiltration into the soil is measured over time using a measuring rod. Soil types have characteristic infiltration rates ranging from less than 30 mm/hr for sand to 1-5 mm/hr for clay. The document provides materials needed, methodology which involves recording water level drops over time, and references.

Irrigation Efficiency
Water conveyance Efficiency
It takes into account, conveyance or transit losses such as seepage through canal and evaporation through it.
η_c=W_f/W_r ×100
Where, Wf = water delivered to the field
Wr = water delivered from river or stream
Water Application Efficiency
It is the ratio of water stored in root zone to the water delivered to the field.
η_a=W_s/W_f ×100
Where, WS = water weight stored in root zone
WS = Wf – deep percolation – runoff
Wf = water delivered to the field
This efficiency is also called as farm efficiency and it depends on the irrigation technique that has been adopted.
Water use efficiency
It is the ratio of water used beneficially or consumptively to the water delivered to the field.
η_u=W_u/W_f ×100
Where, Wf = water delivered to the field
WU = consumptively used water
Water Storage Efficiency
This is the ratio of actual water stored in the root zone to the water needed to be stored to bring the moisture content upto field capacity.
Water Distribution efficiency
This evaluate the degree to which water is uniformly distributed to the root zone throughout the field area.
η_d=(1-y/d)×100
Where, d = average depth
y = Average numerical deviation in the depth of water stored from the average depth stored during irrigation
Question – the depths of penetration along the length of a border strip at points 30 m apart were proved. There observed values are 2 m, 1.9 m, 1.8 m, 1.6 m and 1.5 m. Compute the water distribution efficiency.
Solution –
Water distribution efficiency,
η_d=(1-y/d)×100
Where, d = average depth
d = (2+1.9+1.8+1.6+1.5)/5=1.76
And y = average numerical deviation
y = 1/5((2-1.76)+(1.9-1.76)+(1.8-1.76)+(1.76-1.6)+(1.76-1.5)=0.168
Therefore,
η_d=(1-0.168/1.76)×100
η_d=90.45%
Consumptive Use Efficiency
It is the ratio of water used consumptively to the net amount of water from the root zone.

Stream flow representing the runoff phase of the hydrologic cycle is the most important basic data for hydrologic studies. Runoff is generated by rainstorms. Its occurrence and quantity are dependent on the characteristics of the rainfall event, i.e. intensity, duration and distribution. This module highlights about runoff components of the hydrological cycle.
Sprinkler Irrigation is a method of applying irrigation water which is similar to rainfall.
Water is distributed through a system of pipes usually by pumping at pressure above 2 kg/cm2.
It is then sprayed into the air and irrigated entire soil surface through spray heads so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground.
Pressurized irrigation through devices called sprinklers.
This presentation covers direct and indirect methods of moisture measurement with clear descriptions of installation, principle, interpretation of readings, advantages and disadvantages of each method.
Gully Erosion Control Measures
Temporary check dam
Brushwood dams
One row or single post brush wood dam
Double row post brush wood dams.
Semi permanent dams
Loose rock dam
Netting dam
Log check dam
Permanent check dam
Drop Spillway
Drop inlet spillway
Chute spillway
When rainwater falls on the ground, a small part of it is initially absorbed by the top thin layer of soil so as to replenish the soil moisture deficiency.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

3. INFILTRATION & INFILTRATION RATE
INFILTRATION REFERS TO THE ENTRY AND
DOWNWARD MOVEMENT OF WATER IN TO THE SOIL
SURFACE.
The infiltration rate is the velocity or speed at which water
enters into the soil. It is usually measured by the depth (in mm)
of the water layer that can enter the soil in one hour.
4. INFILTRATION RATES FOR VARIOUS SOIL
TYPES
Soil type Basic infiltration rate (mm/hour)
sand less than 30
sandy loam 20 - 30
loam 10 - 20
clay loam 5 - 10
clay 1 - 5
5. DOUBLE RING INFILTROMETER
Infiltration of water into the soil can
be determined by a simple
instrument called Double ring
infiltrometer. The cylindrical ring
infiltrometer consist of single metal
cylinder. These cylinders are partially
inserted into the ground and water
is filled up to a margin inside the
cylinder and after that the speed of
penetration of water is measured
with respect to the time and depth
of penetration of water inside the
6. MATERIALS REQUIRED
Cylindrical ring (one with 30cm and another with 60 cm diameter.)
Wooden piece (to drive the cylinder inside the soil)
Hammer (to dig the cylinder inside the soil without any disturbance in
the soil surface)
Measuring bucket
Measuring jar (2lt)
Metal plate
Stopwatch (to know the time interval in which infiltration has to be
measured)
measuring rod 300 mm (the amount of water penetrate inside the soil
within a specific time interval)
Cover & plastic sheet
Wash cloths.
7.
8.
9. METHOD
Hammer the 30 cm diameter ring at least 15 cm into the soil.
drive the measuring rod into the soil so that approximately 12 cm is left
above the ground.
Hammer the 60 cm ring into the soil or construct an earth bund around
the 30 cm ring to protect the soil surface when pouring in the water.
Start the test by pouring water into the ring until the depth is
approximately 70-100 mm.
The water in the bund or within the two rings is to prevent a lateral
spread of water from the infiltrometer.
10. Record the clock time when the test begins and note the water level on
the measuring rod.
After 1-2 minutes, record the drop in water level in the inner ring on
the measuring rod in inner cylinder
Record the water level. Maintain the water level outside the ring
similar to that inside.
Continue the test until the drop in water level is the same over the
same time interval.
Note that at least two infiltration tests should be carried out at a site to
make sure that the correct results are obtained.
