Performance assessment of artificial neural networks and support vector regression models for stream flow predictions.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Water resources planning, development, and management need reliable forecasts of river flows. In past few decades, an important dimension has been introduced in the prediction of the hydrologic phenomenon through artificial intelligence-based modelin...

Modeling daily suspended sediment load using improved support vector machine model and genetic algorithm.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Prediction of sediment volume and sediment load is always one of the important issues for decision-makers of watershed basins. The present study investigated the daily suspended sediment load in a watershed basin using the improved support vector mac...

Priorization of River Restoration by Coupling Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) Models in the Taizi River Basin, Northern China.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Identifying priority zones for river restoration is important for biodiversity conservation and catchment management. However, limited data due to the difficulty of field collection has led to research to better understand the ecological status withi...

Assessment of groundwater vulnerability using supervised committee to combine fuzzy logic models.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Vulnerability indices of an aquifer assessed by different fuzzy logic (FL) models often give rise to differing values with no theoretical or empirical basis to establish a validated baseline or to develop a comparison basis between the modeling resul...

A fuzzy-logic based decision-making approach for identification of groundwater quality based on groundwater quality indices.

Journal of environmental management
Due to inherent uncertainties in measurement and analysis, groundwater quality assessment is a difficult task. Artificial intelligence techniques, specifically fuzzy inference systems, have proven useful in evaluating groundwater quality in uncertain...

Fuzzy logic-based assessment for mapping potential infiltration areas in low-gradient watersheds.

Journal of environmental management
This paper gives an account of the design a logic-based approach for identifying potential infiltration areas in low-gradient watersheds based on remote sensing data. This methodological framework is applied in a sector of the Pampa Plain, Argentina,...

An extreme learning machine model for the simulation of monthly mean streamflow water level in eastern Queensland.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
A predictive model for streamflow has practical implications for understanding the drought hydrology, environmental monitoring and agriculture, ecosystems and resource management. In this study, the state-or-art extreme learning machine (ELM) model w...

Improving forecasting accuracy of medium and long-term runoff using artificial neural network based on EEMD decomposition.

Environmental research
Hydrological time series forecasting is one of the most important applications in modern hydrology, especially for the effective reservoir management. In this research, an artificial neural network (ANN) model coupled with the ensemble empirical mode...

Intergenerational inequity from hydrological drought in a warming world.

Journal of environmental management
As warmer temperatures enhance atmospheric moisture, hydrological droughts tend to intensify in most regions of the globe. Consequently, younger generations are expected to face a more severe risk of hydrological drought during their lifetimes, empha...

Exploring the morpho-tectonic nature, hydrological and physical characteristics of a watershed and prioritizing sub-watersheds surface runoff potentialities by integrating MCDM and ensemble machine learning models.

Journal of environmental management
Much effective rainfall often leads to natural and human-induced hazards when unused. Therefore, monitoring and managing water resources by assessing comprehensive surface runoff (SR) potential is crucial instead of relying on broad sub-watershed (SW...
