N2 - A numerical 1-D model was developed in order to study the effect of soil mulching with transparent polyethylene film upon the soil moisture and temperature regimes. Environmental conditions, soil physical characteristics, and optical properties of the cover are considered. Calculated moisture and temperature profiles were compared with observed ones in experimental field plots. It was shown that soil moisture and temperature distributions are significantly influenced by the polyethylene mulch.-from Authors
