Research Abstract |
Water table levels under paddy fields after water gone out in the North-east Thailand have daily variation which increases around noon. The aim of this study is to analyze the cause of this variation and develop cultural practices to utilize the variation effectively for crop production. Isotope ratio of soil water (δ18O/δ16O) decreased around 0:00 and 12:00 in 50 cm depth, and increased around 0:00 and 12:00 in 70 cm depth. The result suggests that water in 30-50 cm depth increase due to vapor phase movement around 12:00. To promote roots deeper can support crop to absorb the lift up water. Furrow bottom cultivation and hole bottom cultivation which crops are planted deeper are succeed to excellent yields and growths in Ishigaki and the North-east Thailand. Water in the water tables are independent on other ground water; the infiltrated rainfall in small basins established in the water tables. It means water table water is local resource and limited. Water flux was estimated from soil water, soil temperature and soil characteristics. However, it resulted that vapor phase movement is too small to effect crop growth. We have to analyze a mechanism of water lifting and/or water flux calculation.
