摘 要：
Sustainable water management in semi-arid agriculture practices requires quantitative knowledge of water fluxes within the soil-vegetation-atmosphere system. Therefore, we used stable-isotope approaches to evaluate evaporation (E_a), transpiration (T_a), and groundwater recharge (R) at sites in Senegal's Groundnut basin and Ferlo Valley pasture region during the pre-monsoon, monsoon, and post-monsoon seasons of 2021. The approaches were based upon (ⅰ) the isothermal evaporation model (for quantifying E_a); (ⅱ) water and isotope mass balances (to partition E_a and T_a for groundnut and pasture); and (ⅲ) the piston displacement method (for estimating R). E_a losses derived from the isothermal evaporation model corresponded primarily to Stage Ⅱ evaporation, and ranged from 0.02 to 0.09 mm d~(-1) in the Groundnut basin, versus 0.02–0.11 mm d~(-1) in Ferlo. At the groundnut site, E_a rates ranged from 0.01 to 0.69 mm d~(-1); T_a was in the range 0.55–2.29 mm d~(-1); and the T_a/ET_a ratio was 74%– 90%. At the pasture site, the ranges were 0.02–0.39 mm d~(-1) for E_a; 0.9–1.69 mm d~(-1) for T_a; and 62–90% for T_a/ET_a. The ET_a value derived for the groundnut site via the isotope approach was similar to those from eddy covariance measurements, and also to the results from the previous validated HYDRUS-1D model. However, the HYDRUS-1D model gave a lower T_a/ET_a ratio (23.2%). The computed groundwater recharge for the groundnut site amounted to less than 2% of the local annual precipitation. Recommendations are made regarding protocols for preventing changes to isotopic compositions of water in samples that are collected in remote arid regions, but must be analysed days later. The article ends with suggestions for studies to follow up on evidence that local aquifers are being recharged via preferential pathways.
