Examples of problems
Project work can begin from a practical need.
The examples below are deliberately problem-led. They are not claims that one method answers every water question, and they are not a substitute for defining the project scope and available evidence.
How did field-scale water use change through a season?Develop maps and time series of ET and associated field-water states for the study period.
Where are water-use or soil-water patterns different within a field or study area?Inspect spatial outputs and selected locations to identify patterns worth further investigation.
How did irrigation and drying behavior evolve between events?Use the hourly model state and project history to examine field response over time.
Can an existing research or management project use BAITSSS without building a new modeling pipeline?Define the analysis together, prepare the required data, run the system, and deliver the technical outputs needed for the project.
If a freely available ET product already answers the question, that may be the right tool. BAITSSS becomes useful when the project needs a deeper field investigation, hourly process information, soil-water and irrigation context, reproducible reruns, or a project-specific analysis workflow.
