Local spatiotemporal dynamics of particulate matter and oak pollen measured by machine learning aided optical particle counters.

The Science of the total environment
Conventional techniques for monitoring pollen currently have significant limitations in terms of labour, cost and the spatiotemporal resolution that can be achieved. Pollen monitoring networks across the world are generally sparse and are not able to...

Identifying influence factors and thresholds of the next day's pollen concentration in different seasons using interpretable machine learning.

The Science of the total environment
The prevalence of pollen allergies is a pressing global issue, with projections suggesting that half of the world's population will be affected by 2050 according to the estimation of the World Health Organization (WHO). Accurately forecasting pollen ...

Geospatial artificial intelligence for estimating daytime and nighttime nitrogen dioxide concentration variations in Taiwan: A spatial prediction model.

Journal of environmental management
Nitrogen dioxide (NO) is a major air pollutant primarily emitted from traffic and industrial activities, posing health risks. However, current air pollution models often underestimate exposure risks by neglecting the bimodal pattern of NO levels thro...

Is replacing missing values of PM constituents with estimates using machine learning better for source apportionment than exclusion or median replacement?

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
East Asian countries have been conducting source apportionment of fine particulate matter (PM) by applying positive matrix factorization (PMF) to hourly constituent concentrations. However, some of the constituent data from the supersites in South Ko...

Short-term prediction of PM2.5 concentration by hybrid neural network based on sequence decomposition.

PloS one
Accurate forecasting of PM2.5 concentrations serves as a critical tool for mitigating air pollution. This study introduces a novel hybrid prediction model, termed MIC-CEEMDAN-CNN-BiGRU, for short-term forecasting of PM2.5 concentrations using a 24-ho...

Air pollution and mortality for cancer of the respiratory system in Italy: an explainable artificial intelligence approach.

Frontiers in public health
Respiratory system cancer, encompassing lung, trachea and bronchus cancer, constitute a substantial and evolving public health challenge. Since pollution plays a prominent cause in the development of this disease, identifying which substances are mos...

Predicting carbon dioxide emissions in the United States of America using machine learning algorithms.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Carbon dioxide (CO) emissions result from human activities like burning fossil fuels. CO is a greenhouse gas, contributing to global warming and climate change. Efforts to reduce CO emissions include transitioning to renewable energy. Monitoring and ...

Daily scale air quality index forecasting using bidirectional recurrent neural networks: Case study of Delhi, India.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
This research was established to accurately forecast daily scale air quality index (AQI) which is an essential environmental index for decision-making. Researchers have projected different types of models and methodologies for AQI forecasting, such a...

Predicting dust pollution from dry bulk ports in coastal cities: A hybrid approach based on data decomposition and deep learning.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Dust pollution from storage and handling of materials in dry bulk ports seriously affects air quality and public health in coastal cities. Accurate prediction of dust pollution helps identify risks early and take preventive measures. However, there r...

Explainable geospatial-artificial intelligence models for the estimation of PM concentration variation during commuting rush hours in Taiwan.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
PM concentrations are higher during rush hours at background stations compared to the average concentration across these stations. Few studies have investigated PM concentration and its spatial distribution during rush hours using machine learning mo...
