A horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (HSSF-CW) was designed to improve the water quality of an artificial lake in Beijing Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, Beijing, China. Artificial neural networks (ANNs), including multilayer p...
Understanding long-term trends and analyzing their driving factors are essential to effectively enhance water quality in watersheds. In China, although the overall quality of surface water continues to improve, significant issues remain in certain re...
Frequent occurrences of disasters such as red tides significantly threaten bay ecosystems, making near real-time water quality forecasting crucial for disaster warning and decision-making. Conventional techniques, such as process-based modeling and i...
The unbridled discharge of nitrogen and phosphorus (NP) pollutants is believed to have surpassed ecosystem resilience limits for many regions, which is of great concern to research and governmental communities. In this research, a multi-objective opt...
This study investigates the effectiveness of artificial neural networks (ANNs) models in predicting urban water quality, specifically focusing on first flush (FF) event classification and pollutant event mean load (EML) predictions for total suspende...
