Microplastics assessment in the lower stretch of the Ganga River sediment from East Indian region: Influence of land use and rainfall patterns.

Chemosphere
Microplastic (MP) pollution is increasingly viewed as a serious threat to waterways. However, little is known about the effects of land use and rainfall patterns on the occurrence and distribution of MPs in the river sediments. Herein, the MP polluti...

Entomopathogenic nematodes: Commercial use and future perspectives.

Journal of invertebrate pathology
The 100 years of research, development, commercialization and use of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) since their discovery in the 1920s have seen impressive progress. Nowadays, many EPN products, based on a relatively limited number of EPN species, ...

Total nitrogen levels as a key constraint on soil organic carbon stocks across Australian agricultural soils.

Environmental research
Understanding how pedoclimatic drivers regulate soil organic carbon (SOC) stock is crucial for gaining insights into terrestrial carbon-climate feedback and thus adaptation to climate change. However, current data-driven SOC predictive models often n...

Afforestation Surpasses Abandonment in the Recovery of Post-Agricultural Soil Organic Carbon in China as Estimated by Machine Learning Models.

Global change biology
The surface soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics typically follow a trend of initial loss followed by subsequent accumulation after cropland abandonment. However, the timing of SOC stock increase (referred to as the threshold in this study) remains ins...

Data-Driven Estimates of High-Resolution Soil HONO Emissions in China from 2000 to 2020.

Environmental science & technology
Soil nitrous acid (HONO) emissions influence air quality by affecting atmospheric oxidizing capacity and secondary pollutant formation. However, estimating soil HONO emissions remains uncertain due to complex factors and limited data. Here, we presen...

Optimizing swine manure composting parameters with integrated CatBoost and XGBoost models: nitrogen loss mitigation and mechanism.

Journal of environmental management
In this study, machine learning was used to optimize the aerobic composting process of swine manure to enhance nitrogen retention and compost maturity in order to meet the demand for high-quality organic fertilizers in sustainable agriculture. In thi...

Evaluating crash risk factors of farm equipment vehicles on county and non-county roads using interpretable tabular deep learning (TabNet).

Accident; analysis and prevention
Crashes involving farm equipment vehicles are a significant safety concern on public roads, particularly in rural and agricultural regions. These vehicles display unique challenges due to their slow-moving operational speed and interactions with fast...

Diverse Perspectives Illuminate the Intestinal Toxicity of Traditional and Biodegradable Agricultural Film Microplastics to under Varying Exposure Sequences.

Environmental science & technology
The widespread use of plastic agricultural films necessitates a thorough evaluation of environmental risks posed by soil microplastics (MPs). While the intestinal tract is a critical site for MP interactions in soil organisms, current research predom...

Towards precision agriculture tea leaf disease detection using CNNs and image processing.

Scientific reports
In this study, we introduce a groundbreaking deep learning (DL) model designed for the precise task of classifying common diseases in tea leaves, leveraging advanced image analysis techniques. Our model is distinguished by its complex multi-layer arc...

Research on agricultural disease recognition methods based on very large Kernel convolutional network-RepLKNet.

Scientific reports
Agricultural diseases pose significant challenges to plant production. With the rapid advancement of deep learning, the accuracy and efficiency of plant disease identification have substantially improved. However, conventional convolutional neural ne...
