The effects of spatially distributed rainfall on catchment response
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1973)
It is commonly assumed in the application of many models of catchment behaviour that catchment rainfall is uniformly distributed over a catchment. This study examines the effects of non-uniform spatially distributed rainfall ...
The groundwater resources of the Canterbury plains
(Lincoln College. New Zealand Agricultural Engineering Institute., 1974-05)
The N. Z. A. E. I. has a particular responsibility in undertaking
research and development in the agricultural engineering aspects of
water supply, irrigation and drainage, and into the development of
water resources ...
An aeromechanically governed wind turbine: a design study
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1979)
The theoretical model is developed for predicting the aerodynamic performance characteristics of a variable-pitch multi-blade wind turbine. The aerodynamic characteristics are utilized in the design of a self-regulating ...
The permeability of riverbed sediment samples
(Lincoln College. Department of Agricultural Engineering., 1974-11)
The Canterbury Plain stretches roughly 120 km along the Pacific
coast and from the eastern foothills of the Southern Alps, at some 300m
elevation, it stretches roughly 60km to the coast. A depth of sediment
of several ...
Time and motion studies and economic evaluation of conventional bale handling technique in New Zealand
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1974)
Hay is the most important field crop in terms of land acreage in almost all the dairy farming countries of the world.
In the United States, hay is the crop ranked second after wheat, both in monetary value and in acreage ...
Water resource development for expanded irrigated agriculture on the Canterbury Plains
(Lincoln College. New Zealand Agricultural Engineering Institute., 1973-04)
Assuming the ultimate for intensive irrigated agriculture on all suitable land of the Canterbury Plains, estimated water requirements are compared with water resources in rivers and groundwater. Preliminary conclusions are ...
The application of management techniques to water resources development and management
(Lincoln College. New Zealand Agricultural Engineering Institute., 1973-04)
Management techniques cover a range of subjects that represent old wine in a new bag, but wine that has been redistilled by the application of electronics, computers and new thinking on goals to be achieved. Only those ...
