Digital soil mapping in support of voluntary carbon market programs in agricultural land.

PloS one
Voluntary carbon market (VCM) programs in agriculture depend on accurate measurements of soil organic carbon (SOC) that can be deployed at scale efficiently, but barriers are preventing widespread adoption. To overcome these challenges, we developed ...

Aboveground biomass estimation using multimodal remote sensing observations and machine learning in mixed temperate forest.

Scientific reports
Plants sequester carbon in their aboveground components, making aboveground tree biomass a key metric for assessing forest carbon storage. Traditional methods of aboveground biomass (AGB) estimation via Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) plots lack ...

The role of phytoplankton in structuring global oceanic dissolved organic carbon pools.

Nature communications
Phytoplankton-derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is a major pathway for atmospheric CO transfer to long-lived oceanic DOC reservoirs. Yet, current models rarely accounted for its molecular and taxonomic heterogeneity across growth seasons. Here, ...

Machine Learning-Assisted Prediction of Mercury Removal Efficiency of Carbon-Based Adsorbents.

Environmental science & technology
Adsorbent injection is the most promising technology for solving anthropogenic mercury (mainly Hg) emission from stationary sources. Carbon-based adsorbents have strong potential for Hg removal due to their high specific surface area and abundant fun...

Computationally unmasking each fatty acyl C=C position in complex lipids by routine LC-MS/MS lipidomics.

Nature communications
Identifying carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) positions in complex lipids is essential for elucidating physiological and pathological processes. Currently, this is impossible in high-throughput analyses of native lipids without specialized instrumentat...

Accurate VLE Predictions via COSMO-RS-Guided Deep Learning Models: Solubility and Selectivity in Physical Solvent Systems for Carbon Capture.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Carbon capture through physical solvents reduces energy consumption and lowers environmental impact compared with conventional chemical absorption methods. Typical properties for solvent screening are solubility and selectivity. However, they require...

Finance fuels carbon cut? The carbon reduction effect of sci-tech financial policies: Evidence from a quasi-natural experiment.

Journal of environmental management
Based on panel data from 270 prefecture-level cities in China from 2006 to 2021, this paper employs the Pilot Programme to Promote the Integration of Science and Technology (S&T) Finance as a quasi-natural experiment. A difference-in-differences (DID...

Exploring the carbon rebound effect of agriculture and policy response: Lessons from zero growth of fertiliser action.

Environmental research
Agricultural technological progress is theoretically regarded as the core driving force to curb carbon emissions, but its possible rebound effect often leads to systematic offsetting of emission reduction. Based on the panel data of 267 cities in Chi...

Predicting arsenic bioaccessibility: A global data-driven machine learning approach and its implication for reducing carbon emissions.

Journal of hazardous materials
Site-specific arsenic (As) bioaccessibility data can improve the accuracy of health risk assessments, but direct measurements are costly and time-consuming. Even when available, measured values such as the mean still yield remediation targets below n...

Machine learning prediction of DOC-water partitioning coefficients for organic pollutants from diverse DOM origins.

Environmental science. Processes & impacts
This study aims to improve predictions and understanding of dissolved organic carbon-water partitioning coefficients (), a crucial parameter in environmental risk assessment. A dataset encompassing 709 datapoints across 190 unique organic pollutants ...
