Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows for accurate assessments of soil properties such as how much rain falls over an agricultural field during different stages of its development. It provides a way to measure these differences accurately without relying solely upon physical measurements like temperature or humidity levels that may be affected negatively due to factors other than actual conditions at any given time. By combining both environmental variables (temperature) and gusts into one equation, the system predicts future values more precisely compared against previous results from experiments conducted under similar settings. Overall, this innovation helps optimize crop management strategies while optimizing resource utilization efficiency.

Problems solved by technology

This patents describes how long ago studying changes made across geologically significant regions such as agricultural fields have shown limitations with existing techniques like volumetric analysis (VCA) and numerical simulations. Specifically, they either neglect specific factors involved during the dynamics of evaporative processes within unsaturate layers or use simplified mathematical equations derived through partial differential decomposition. Additionally, previous attempts were limited in their ability to accurately evaluate soil water usage patterns in unsaturaced zones without accounting for both the influence of external sources such as wind and rain.

Embodiment 1

[0045] This embodiment is an evaluation method for the water consumption characteristics of unsaturated zone soil, the process is as follows figure 1 shown. In this example, on the basis of establishing a large-scale unsaturated zone soil moisture consumption utility definition method, a quantitative evaluation of unsaturated zone soil moisture consumption characteristics based on water cycle and energy cycle process is realized by constructing a simulation model of unsaturated zone soil moisture cycle method.

[0046] Because in the process of natural water cycle, the soil moisture in the whole unsaturated zone is a process of recharge and discharge at the same time. Its recharge item includes the amount of precipitation that infiltrates into the soil and remains in the unsaturated zone, and the subsurface evaporation item, which can be expressed as the formula:
