wide strip between 10 and 20 m, as is evident
from the high slope on this section of the graph.
No significant difference in advance rate was
found between the wide and narrow strips after
the water advanced over 200 m.
Distribution of sediment on the strips
As figure 4 shows, the sediment concentration
in the irrigation water declined as the water
moved forward over the two strips, with the
