Deep percolation is the flowing of soil water by gravity below the effective epth of the root zone, that is an important factor in filling of grounwater an esign of subsurface rainage. Deep percolation can be etermine by taking fiel ata to estimate soil water epletion using water balance equation. This metho is very expensive an time consuming. The goal of this research was to quantify eep percolation ue to irrigation with using a mathematical moel. The input variables of this moel are the effective parameters on eep percolation such as, be slope, inflow rate an coefficients of soil infiltration. These variables were measure at 16 farms in Zayanehroo basin. Comparison between estimate an measure eep percolation showe that the moel s error percentage is 1.73%. Keywors Deep percolation, Infiltration, Moel, Soil properties 1. Introuction Generally, percolation is one of the components of the hyrology cycle. Water which ue to irrigation or rain percolates in pastures or farmlans, ivies into two parts. Part of it is preserve in the root region of pasture plants or crops which is use by plants. Another part leaves the root region which is calle eep percolation. In other wors, eep percolation is the soil water movement by the gravity force below the region of roots. Deep percolation plays a crucial role in stuies of artificial nutrition of pastures an catchment basins an esigning of rains. Stuies inicate that there are two methos available for estimating or measuring the eep percolation: 1. The water balance metho: In this metho percolation is measure through employing the relation p1, an measurement of soil humiity at the root region, evaporation an transpiration an also measurement of rain an irrigation epth.

Philips et al (1) estimate the eep percolation in an irrigate alfalfa crop in south central Colorao using the water balance an base on publication ASCE NO. 70 (2) 2. Metho of concurrent measurement of moisture an soil suction at various epths. In this metho, first soil moisture an suction at ifferent soil epth is measure an the soil moisture slope is rawn. Then employing the Couric an Millington metho, presente by Bouwer an Jackson (3) capillary conuction is estimate. Intensity of eep percolation base on Darcy law, is compute from the prouct of capillary conuction an suction curve slope between the two specifie epths. Stentizer an Gassner (4) employe this metho for estimating the eep percolation. Although the above sai methos have provie goo results however, they are very time consuming an expensive. In this paper, a mathematical moel is presente for estimating the eep percolation base in some characteristics of the soil an total water percolate to the soil, an its precision in comparison with the measure rates has been stuie.

Accoring to the performe agrology stuies about 45% of lars are locate in 5.2 unit, 10% in the 5.3 unit, 20% in the 4.1 unit, 10% in the 4.2 unit an remainer of the lans with agricultural application are locate in 4.3, 4.4, 3.1, 3.2, 8.1, 8.2, an 7 units. ata collection has been one from the farm which is at present water irrigate an has a meium to heavy soil texture. Stuy of farming situation in the Morghab area inicate that wheat is consiere as ominant autumn culture, rice an corn for summer culture an alfalfa for perennial culture. Thus, regaring the uner cultivation surfaces, 9 measurements in the wheat farms, 5 measurements for alfalfa an 2 measurements in the corn farms was performe. Specifications of the farms are presente in table Measurement of parameters effective on eep percolation from the 16 above sai farms, parameters effective on eep percolation were collecte as follows. A. Slope of the farm (s) B. Percolation Coefficients of the lewis-kostiakov equation explaine in relation 2: In this equation Z stans for epth of the percolate water, f 0 is velocity of final percolation of soil, accoring to m/min, t is percolation time in minutes, an k an a are coefficients the percolation equation. Final percolation velocity an percolation coefficients were etermine by fiel tests. C. Depth of the available moisture (epth of the water present in the soil which is easily available for the plant) which is compute from the equation (3); In this equation n stans for available moisture in meter, FC is volumetric percentage of soil moisture in fiel capacity, PWP is the volumetric percentage of moisture at the permanent willing point, is root epth in meter, an P is percentage of permissible moisture ischarge. FC an PWP values were etermine via fiel tests. D.
