Sentence examples for floodwater depth from inspiring English sources

These transitions are dynamically simulated and driven by modelled hydraulic variables (soil water and floodwater depth).

Tubers of LLCR were larger than those of ULCR, with higher carbohydrate content, and larger tubers developed with increasing floodwater depth.

In a subsequent study to further elucidate the physiological differences between the lowland and upland ecotypes of these sedges, Fuentes et al. (2010) observed that the lowland ecotype develops even larger tubers with increasing floodwater depth, probably as an adaptive feature for flooded-soil conditions.

From the six trials conducted during this study, it became clear that severe stress imposed early during the vegetative stage, i.e. increasing the floodwater depth of 20 30-day-old seedlings to reach 50–60 cm within 20 30-day-oldowed by maintaining that depth through maturity, was effective in identifying the most tolerant genotypes.

Weather forecasts call for continued rain over the next few days, which could increase floodwater depths in some provinces and result in new flooding in other areas.

The number of layers observed decreases as one progresses up-valley, indicating that the floodwater lakes varied in depth and distance upstream from the various flood dams.

Yield loss due to floods ranges from 10to100%0 % depending on flood duration, depth and floodwater conditions (Ismail et al. 2013).

Apparently, the expression of some of these adaptive traits is enhanced in LLCR with low-oxygen stress, such as its tendency to divert more carbohydrates and produce progressively larger tubers with increasing depth of floodwater (Fig.  2), and the increased proportion of air spaces, particularly in stems, to facilitate oxygen diffusion to the submerged plant parts (Figs  3 and 4).

At each sampling point, 100 mL floodwater were collected at a depth of 20 cm into a sterile glass bottle.

Moderate elongation under SF increased the ultimate plant height by 12 49 %, resulting in heights of more than twice the depth of the floodwater.

In deepwater (DW) regions, depth of the floodwater is frequently greater than 50 cm and can reach several metres at times.
