Irrigation Science presents original articles and short communications reporting the results of irrigation-related research. Coverage includes relevant contributions from the plant, soil and atmospheric sciences and analysis of field experimentation, as well as irrigation water management modeling. Special emphasis is devoted to multi-disciplinary studies dealing with the challenges of maintaining the long-term productivity of irrigated lands and increasing the efficiency of agricultural water use.Aspects of particular interest include physiology of plant growth and yield response to water status; physical and chemical aspects of water status and movement in the plant-soil-atmosphere system; salinity and alkalinity control by soil and water management; agricultural drainage, measurement and modification of crop and control of water in plant, soil and atmosphere; water requirements in irrigation practice; irrigation scheduling and ecological aspects of irrigated agriculture.

灌溉科學提供原始的文章和簡短的通信報告灌溉相關的研究結果。覆蓋范圍包括來自植物、土壤和大氣科學的相關貢獻，以及田間試驗分析，以及灌溉用水管理模型。特別強調多學科研究，處理維持灌溉土地長期生產力和提高農業用水效率的挑戰。特別感興趣的方面包括植物生長生理學和產量對水狀況的反應;植物-土壤-大氣系統水分狀況和運動的物理和化學方面;通過土壤和水的管理來控制鹽度和堿度;農業排水、作物測量和改良以及植物、土壤和大氣中的水分控制;灌溉實踐中的需水量;灌溉農業的灌溉計劃和生態方面。
