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...

Comparing statistical and deep learning approaches for simultaneous prediction of stand-level above- and belowground biomass in tropical forests.

The Science of the total environment
Accurate and cost-effective prediction of aboveground biomass (AGB), belowground biomass (BGB), and the total (ABGB) at stand-level within tropical forests is crucial for effective forest ecological management and the provision of forest ecosystem se...

Multitemporal monitoring of forest indicator species using UAV and machine learning image recognition.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
In natural restoration, it is important to improve the efficiency of monitoring. Remote sensing using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms plays a major role in improving monitoring efficiency. UAV platforms are particularly suited for monitoring ...

Assessing the performance of machine learning algorithms for analyzing land use changes in the Hyrcanian forests of Iran.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Land use changes are of critical importance in understanding and managing environmental sustainability and resource utilization. Machine learning algorithms (MLAs) have emerged as powerful tools for analyzing and predicting land use changes, offering...

Understanding ecosystem services of detailed forest and wetland types using remote sensing and deep learning techniques in Northern China.

Journal of environmental management
Spanning both temperate and sub-frigid zones, Northeast China boasts typical boreal forests and abundant wetland resources. Because of these attributes, the region is critically significant for global climate regulation, carbon sequestration, and bio...

Deep learning models map rapid plant species changes from citizen science and remote sensing data.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Anthropogenic habitat destruction and climate change are reshaping the geographic distribution of plants worldwide. However, we are still unable to map species shifts at high spatial, temporal, and taxonomic resolution. Here, we develop a deep learni...

Soil organic carbon estimation using remote sensing data-driven machine learning.

PeerJ
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a crucial component of the global carbon cycle, playing a significant role in ecosystem health and carbon balance. In this study, we focused on assessing the surface SOC content in Shandong Province based on land use type...

European beech spring phenological phase prediction with UAV-derived multispectral indices and machine learning regression.

Scientific reports
Acquiring phenological event data is crucial for studying the impacts of climate change on forest dynamics and assessing the risks associated with the early onset of young leaves. Large-scale mapping of forest phenological timing using Earth observat...

The consistent fuzzy suitability assessment of forest land resources with multi-source heterogeneous data.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
In view of the suitability assessment of forest land resources, a consistent fuzzy assessment method with heterogeneous information is proposed. Firstly, some formulas for transforming large-scale real data and interval data into fuzzy numbers are pr...
