Research Progress of Evaluation Index of Soil Moisture

土壤墒情评价指标研究进展（英文）

In modern agriculture, accurate and effective measurements of soil water content lays foundation for promotion on precision irrigation technology and improvement on water use efficiency. The research reviewed soil moisture indices at home and abroad and classified the indices into two categories in order to make prediction on soil moisture and take measures. Specifically, single indices included precipitation index, soil moisture index, and crop drought index and overall indices included supply/demand water index of crops, overall water index, PDSI, crop water shortage index. Soil moisture index was analyzed in terms of advantages and disadvantages,as well as adaptability in agriculture, providing references for relieving and predicting adverse effects on agriculture and formulating scientific policies.

在现代农业中,准确有效的测量土壤含水量是推行精量灌溉技术、提高水资源利用率的基础。为了更好地预测墒情并及时采取应对措施,综述了国内外广泛应用的各类土壤墒情指标并将其归纳为单项指标和综合指标两类,单项指标包括降水量指标、土壤含水量指标、作物旱情指标等;综合指标包括作物供需水指标、作物水分综合指标、PSDI指标、作物缺水指标等评价了土壤墒情指标的优缺点以及在农业上的适宜性,为减缓和预防土壤墒情对农业的不良影响及制定科学的政策提供依据。
