Title
Reducing losses in earthen agricultural water conveyance and distribution systems by employing automatic control systems.
Abstract
•A seepage model was integrated with an automatic control system (ACS) to simulate losses.•The ACS reduced operational and seepage losses up to 9% and 7%, respectively.•Adopting inline storage as an operational strategy was key in achieving delivery adequacy.•The integrated approach can be used by managers to evaluate different management scenarios.
