Abstract/Contents:Discusses irrigation systems, stating that "generally...the best profile for turf irrigation is a wedge shape...This is because an overlapped wedge maintains more uniform application rates when slight adjustments in sprinkler spacing are required." Suggests that "an irrigation audit catch-can test is a good method to evaluate and document an existing sprinkler system's performace." Lists factors affecting distribution uniformity, including "spacing and geometric configuration"; "sprinkler brand, model and nozzle combinations"; "operating pressure"; and "rotation speed."
