BACKGROUND: Soil water content is one of the critical indicators in agricultural systems. Visible/near-infrared hyperspectral remote sensing is an effective method for soil water estimation. However, noise removal from massive spectral datasets and e...
One reason arid and semi-arid environments have been used to store waste is due to low groundwater recharge, presumably limiting the potential for meteoric water to mobilize and transport contaminants into groundwater. The U.S. Department of Energy O...
The traditional prediction of the Cd content in grains (Cd) of crops primarily relies on the multiple linear regression models based on soil Cd content (Cd) and pH, neglecting inter-factorial interactions and nonlinear causal links between external e...
The accumulation of polyethylene microplastic (PE-MPs) in soil can significantly impact plant quality and yield, as well as affect human health and food chain cycles. Therefore, developing rapid and effective detection methods is crucial. In this stu...
The amounts of gases emitted from composting are key to evaluating global warming potential (GWP). However, few methods can accurately predict the quantities of relevant gas emissions. In this study, three developed machine-learning models were used ...
Soil heavy metal pollution poses a serious threat to food security, human health, and soil ecosystems. Based on 644 soil samples collected from a typical oasis located at the eastern margin of the Tarim Basin, a series of models, namely, multiple lin...
Direct nitrous oxide (NO) emissions from fertilizer application are the largest anthropogenic source of global NO, but the factors influencing these emissions remain debated. Here, we compile 1134 observations of fertilizer-induced NO emission factor...
