Improved drought forecasting in Kazakhstan using machine and deep learning: a non-contiguous drought analysis approach

Kazakhstan is recently experiencing an increase in drought trends. However, low-capacity probabilistic drought forecasts and poor dissemination have led to a drought crisis in 2021 that resulted in the loss of thousands of livestock. To improve drought forecasting accuracy, this study applies Machine Learning and Deep Learning (ML and DL)...

A Classification-Based Machine Learning Approach to the Prediction of Cyanobacterial Blooms in Chilgok Weir, South Korea

Cyanobacterial blooms appear by complex causes such as water quality, climate, and hydrological factors. This study aims to present the machine learning models to predict occurrences of these complicated cyanobacterial blooms efficiently and effectively. The dataset was classified into groups consisting of two, three, or four classes based on...

Coevolution of machine learning and process-based modelling to revolutionize Earth and environmental sciences: A perspective

Machine learning (ML) applications in Earth and environmental sciences (EES) have gained incredible momentum in recent years. However, these ML applications have largely evolved in ‘isolation’ from the mechanistic, process-based modelling (PBM) paradigms, which have historically been the cornerstone of scientific discovery and policy support....

Prediction Of Hydrological Models’ Uncertainty By A Committee Of Machine Learning-Models

In the MLUE method (reported in Shrestha et al. [1, 2]) we run a hydrological model M for multiple realizations of parameters vectors (Monte Carlo simulations), and use this data to build a machine learning model V to predict uncertainty (quantiles) of the model M output. In this paper, for model V, we employ three machine learning techniques,...
