Influencing factors and prediction of arsenic concentration in Pteris vittata: A combination of geodetector and empirical models

Environmental Pollution, 2022
Phytoextraction using hyperaccumulator, Pteris vittata, to extract arsenic (As) from soil has been applied to large areas to achieve an As removal rate of 18% per year. However, remarkable difference among different studies and field practices has led to difficulties in the standardization of phytoextraction technology.

Identifying the Influencing Factors of Cooling Effect of Urban Blue Infrastructure Using the Geodetector Model

Remote Sensing, 2022
The urban heat island (UHI) effect has a serious negative impact on urban ecosystems and human well-being. Mitigating UHI through nature-based methods is highly recommended. The cooling effect of urban blue infrastructure (UBI) can significantly alleviate the effects of UHI.

Decoupling anthropogenic and climate impacts on vegetation dynamics in China's Huaihe River Basin using geodetector. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of vegetation under the coupled influence of climatic and anthropogenic drivers is crucial for ecological governance at the river basin scale. This study focuses on the Huaihe River Basin (HRB) in China, a climate-sensitive region spanning both northern and southern climatic zones.

The superposition effects of air pollution on government health expenditure in China— spatial evidence from GeoDetector

BMC Public Health, 2022
Abstract Background As the fifth-largest global mortality risk factor, air pollution has caused nearly one-tenth of the world’s deaths, with a death toll of 5 million. 21% of China’s disease burden was related to environmental pollution, which is 8% higher than the US.
