Application of Bayesian networks in a hierarchical structure for environmental risk assessment: a case study of the Gabric Dam, Iran.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Environmental risk assessment (ERA) is a commonly used, effective tool applied to reduce adverse effects of environmental risk factors. In this study, ERA was investigated using the Bayesian network (BN) model based on a hierarchical structure of var...

Novel forecasting approaches using combination of machine learning and statistical models for flood susceptibility mapping.

Journal of environmental management
In this research, eight individual machine learning and statistical models are implemented and compared, and based on their results, seven ensemble models for flood susceptibility assessment are introduced. The individual models included artificial n...

Flood susceptibility assessment in Hengfeng area coupling adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system with genetic algorithm and differential evolution.

The Science of the total environment
Floods are among Earth's most common natural hazards, and they cause major economic losses and seriously affect peoples' lives and health. This paper addresses the development of a flood susceptibility assessment that uses intelligent techniques and ...

Identifying trace metal distribution and occurrence in sediments, inundated soils, and non-flooded soils of a reservoir catchment using Self-Organizing Maps, an artificial neural network method.

Environmental science and pollution research international
The Lancang-Mekong River is a trans-boundary river which provides a livelihood for over 60 million people in Southeast Asia. Its environmental security is vital to both local and regional inhabitants. Efforts have been undertaken to identify controll...

Predicting and communicating flood risk of transport infrastructure based on watershed characteristics.

Journal of environmental management
This research aims to identify and communicate water-related vulnerabilities in transport infrastructure, specifically flood risk of road/rail-stream intersections, based on watershed characteristics. This was done using flooding in Värmland and Väst...

Securing mobile ad hoc networks using danger theory-based artificial immune algorithm.

PloS one
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a set of mobile, decentralized, and self-organizing nodes that are used in special cases, such as in the military. MANET properties render the environment of this network vulnerable to different types of attacks, in...

Formation mechanism analysis and the prediction for compound flood arising from rainstorm and tide using explainable artificial intelligence.

Journal of environmental management
The compounded effect of heavy rainfall and high tide backwater significantly exacerbate the load on urban drainage systems in coastal cities, leading to an escalating risk of compound flood disasters. The formation mechanism of compound floods is of...

Data-driven multi-hazard susceptibility and community perceptions assessment using a mixed-methods approach.

Journal of environmental management
Assessing multi-hazard susceptibility and understanding community insights are important for effective disaster risk management; however, limited research has been conducted to study these aspects together. This study uses a data-driven approach to a...

Explainable AI-based risk assessment for pluvial floods over South Korea.

Journal of environmental management
Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) of pluvial flood risk assessment has been widely used, incorporating multiple assessment indices. However, uncertainty assessment of expert judgement-based flood risk remains limited. This study proposes a Machine Lea...

Multiple flood vulnerability assessment approach based on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method and coordinated development degree model.

Journal of environmental management
Flood is a serious challenge that increasingly affects the residents as well as policymakers. Flood vulnerability assessment is becoming gradually relevant in the world. The purpose of this study is to develop an approach to reveal the relationship b...
