Improving hazards in maritime transport is essential to maintain the reliability and sustainability of the industry, ensure safety and security, and support global trade and economic growth. This paper is aimed at analyzing the hazards of passenger-c...

Integration of SPEI and machine learning for assessing the characteristics of drought in the middle ganga plain, an agro-climatic region of India.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Drought, as a natural and intricate climatic phenomenon, poses challenges with implications for both natural ecosystems and socioeconomic conditions. Evaluating the characteristics of drought is a significant endeavor aimed at mitigating its impact o...

Machine learning for air quality index (AQI) forecasting: shallow learning or deep learning?

Environmental science and pollution research international
In this study, several machine learning (ML) models consisting of shallow learning (SL) models (e.g., random forest (RF), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), weighted K-nearest neighbor (WKNN), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), and...

From microplastics to pixels: testing the robustness of two machine learning approaches for automated, Nile red-based marine microplastic identification.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Despite the urgent need for accurate and robust observations of microplastics in the marine environment to assess current and future environmental risks, existing procedures remain labour-intensive, especially for smaller-sized microplastics. In addi...

Environmental science and pollution research international
This study represents a pioneering effort to integrate geographic information systems (GIS) and ensemble machine learning methods to predict noise levels on a university campus. Three ensemble models including random forest (RF), gradient boosting (G...

Considerations for using tree-based machine learning to assess causation between demographic and environmental risk factors and health outcomes.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Evaluation of the heterogeneous treatment effect (HTE) allows for the assessment of the causal effect of a therapy or intervention while considering heterogeneity in individual factors within a population. Machine learning (ML) methods have previousl...

Multiple remotely sensed datasets and machine learning models to predict chlorophyll-a concentration in the Nakdong River, South Korea.

Environmental science and pollution research international
The Nakdong River is a crucial water resource in South Korea, supplying water for various purposes such as potable water, irrigation, and recreation. However, the river is vulnerable to algal blooms due to the inflow of pollutants from multiple point...

Coupling artificial neural network and sperm swarm optimization for soil temperature prediction at multiple depths.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Soil temperature (ST) stands as a pivotal parameter in the realm of water resources and irrigation. It serves as a guide for farmers, enabling them to determine optimal planting and fertilization timings. In the backdrop of regions like Iran, where w...
