Ecosystem services (ES) are key benefits that humans derive from natural ecosystems, including provisioning, regulating, and cultural services. As urbanization accelerates globally, urban green spaces (UGS), increasingly recognized for their role in improving environmental quality enhancing human well-being, provide essential ES help mitigate the effects of urbanization. However, factors influencing public preferences these services, particularly knowledge religiosity, remain underexplored....

Watersheds continue to be urbanized across different regions of the United States, increasing number impaired waterbodies due urban stormwater. Using machine learning techniques, this study examined how stormwater quality and watershed characteristics are related at a national scale compared watersheds in diverse climates. We analyzed selection data from National Stormwater Quality Database (NSQD) comprising 1,881 samples taken 182 26 metropolitan areas States between 1992 2003. an ensemble...

Emerging research has begun to document the nuanced ways that urban form can influence water quality in areas. To facilitate greater consideration of by planning practitioners, this paper illustrates a two-step method predict performance land use scenarios through presentation case study Huron River watershed Michigan, USA. First, random forest models are used relate 38 variables three outcomes within watershed: total suspended solids (TSS), phosphorus (TP), and Escherichia coli ( E. coli)...

Remote sensing offers a low-cost method for estimating yields at large spatio-temporal scales. Here, we examined the ability of Sentinel-2 satellite imagery to map field-level maize across smallholder farms in two regions Oromia district, Ethiopia. We evaluated how effectively different indices, MTCI, GCVI, and NDVI, models, linear regression random forest regression, can be used yields. also if models improved by adding weather soil data generalizable our were trained one region applied...

Adverse environmental impacts in the watershed are driven by urbanization, which is reflected land use and cover (LULC) transitions, such as increased impervious surfaces, industrial expansion, green space reduction. Some adverse on water environment include urban flooding quality degradation. Our study area, Rouge River Watershed, has been susceptible to accelerated urbanization degradation of ecosystems. Employing Land Change Modeler (LCM), we designed four alternative development...
