Revisiting the relationship between geopolitical risk and ecological footprint: A comprehensive analysis based on dual machine learning.

Journal of environmental management
Geopolitical conflicts and other risk events are subtly reshaping the global political and economic landscape, gradually disrupting the balance between economic development and ecological sustainability. Understanding the pathways through which geopo...

Ecological risks of PFAS in China's surface water: A machine learning approach.

Environment international
The persistence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in surface water can pose risks to ecosystems, while due to data limitations, the occurrence, risks, and future trends of PFAS at large scales remain unknown. This study investigated the e...

Exploring the impact of land use on bird diversity in high-density urban areas using explainable machine learning models.

Journal of environmental management
Amid rapid urbanization, land use shifts in cities globally have profound effects on ecosystems and biodiversity. Birds, as a crucial component of urban biodiversity, are highly sensitive to environmental changes and often serve as indicator species ...

Machine learning assessment of dredging impacts on the phytoplankton community on the Brazilian equatorial margin: A multivariate analysis.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Dredging in estuarine systems significantly impacts phytoplankton communities, with suspended particulate matter (SPM) and dissolved aluminum (Al) serving as indicators of disturbance intensity. This study assessed the effects of dredging in the São ...

Spatio-temporal analysis of litterfall load in the lower reaches of Qarqan and Tarim rivers using BP neural networks.

Scientific reports
Litterfall load is crucial in maintaining ecosystem health, controlling wildfires, and estimating carbon stock in arid regions. However, there is a lack of spatiotemporal analysis of litterfall in arid riparian forests. This study aims to estimate Li...

Aboveground biomass estimation in a grassland ecosystem using Sentinel-2 satellite imagery and machine learning algorithms.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
The grassland ecosystem forms a critical part of the natural ecosystem, covering up to 15-26% of the Earth's land surface. Grassland significantly impacts the carbon cycle and climate regulation by storing carbon dioxide. The organic matter found in ...

Assessment of wetland ecological restoration effect based on fuzzy analytic hierarchy process: a case study of Tianjin Qilihai Wetland.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Scientific evaluation of the effectiveness of ecological restoration could provide support for sustainable management and protection of wetlands. However, due to the multiple and difficult to quantify factors affecting wetlands, commonly used spatiot...

Integrating machine learning and remote sensing for long-term monitoring of chlorophyll-a in Chilika Lagoon, India.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Chlorophyll-a (Chla) is recognized as a key indicator of water quality and ecological health in aquatic ecosystems, offering valuable insights into ecosystem dynamics and changes over time. This study aimed to to develop and validate a robust ML mode...

Identifying human activities causing water pollution based on microbial community sequencing and source classifier machine learning.

Environment international
Identifying and differentiating human activities is crucial for effectively preventing the threats posed by environmental pollution to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Machine learning (ML) is a powerful analytical tool for tracking human impacts...

Environmental drivers of dissolved organic matter composition across central European aquatic systems: A novel correlation-based machine learning and FT-ICR MS approach.

Water research
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) present in surface aquatic systems is a heterogeneous mixture of organic compounds reflecting its allochthonous and autochthonous organic matter (OM) sources. The composition of DOM is determined by environmental factor...
