Radiocaesium soil-to-plant transfer: a meta-analysis of key variables and data gaps on a global scale.

Journal of environmental radioactivity
A harmonized, publicly accessible database of worldwide observations and experiments on radiocaesium transfer from soil to plants is lacking. Such a database is needed for evaluating and establishing transfer models, especially for regions with limit...

Unraveling soil salinity on potentially toxic element accumulation in coastal Phragmites australis: A novel integration of multivariate and interpretable machine-learning models.

Marine pollution bulletin
Revealing the key mechanisms influencing the behavior of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in soil-plant systems is of great significance for environmental protection and grassland development in coastal areas. This study utilized redundancy analysis...

Uncovering rare earth and precious metal in landfill-mined soil-like-fractions: distribution prediction, ecological risk and resource potential.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
The introduction of rare earth elements (REEs) and precious metals (PMs) containing wastes in aged landfills leads to a significant pollutant and resource potential. Against this backdrop, the accumulation of REEs and PMs in soil-like-fractions (SLF)...

Unraveling four decades of soil acidification on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau: Patterns, drivers, and future projections.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Soil acidification poses escalating threats to ecosystem functions, yet its spatiotemporal dynamics and drivers across vulnerable high-altitude regions remain poorly resolved. Here, we integrate four-decade soil surveys (1980s-2020s) with machine lea...

Estimating soil cadmium concentration using multi-source UAV imagery and machine learning techniques.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Urbanization and industrialization have led to widespread soil heavy metals contamination, posing significant risks to ecosystems and human health. Conventional methods for mapping heavy metal distribution, which rely on soil sampling followed by che...

Evaluation of machine learning models for accurate prediction of heavy metals in coal mining region soils in Bangladesh.

Environmental geochemistry and health
Coal mining soils are highly susceptible to heavy metal pollution due to the discharge of mine tailings, overburden dumps, and acid mine drainage. Developing a reliable predictive model for heavy metal concentrations in this region has proven to be a...

Soil fertility matters! A new conceptual model for carbon stewardship in neotropical croplands taking climate-smart agricultural practices into account.

The Science of the total environment
Mismanagement of agroecosystems in Neotropical regions threatens global security, accelerating the transgression of planetary boundaries. Therefore, understanding carbon (C) stewardship and how climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices change nutrien...

Maize yield estimation in Northeast China's black soil region using a deep learning model with attention mechanism and remote sensing.

Scientific reports
Accurate prediction of maize yields is crucial for effective crop management. In this paper, we propose a novel deep learning framework (CNNAtBiGRU) for estimating maize yield, which is applied to typical black soil areas in Northeast China. This fra...

Modeling PFAS Sorption in Soils Using Machine Learning.

Environmental science & technology
In this study, we introduce PFASorptionML, a novel machine learning (ML) tool developed to predict solid-liquid distribution coefficients () for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in soils. Leveraging a data set of 1,274 entries for PFAS in ...

Leveraging explainable AI to predict soil respiration sensitivity and its drivers for climate change mitigation.

Scientific reports
Global warming is one of the most pressing and critical problems facing the world today. It is mainly caused by the increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide (CO). Understanding how soils respond to rising temperatures is...
