Analysis of the Utilization of Machine Learning to Map Flood Susceptibility
ABSTRACT This article provides an analysis of the utilization of Machine Learning (ML) models in Flood Susceptibility Mapping (FSM), based on selected publications from the past decade (2013–2023). Recognizing the challenge that some stages of ML modeling inherently rely on experience or trial‐and‐error approaches, this work aims at establishing a ...

Mitigating Urban Heat Islands (UHI) Through Vegetation Restoration: Insights From Mining Communities
Vegetation restoration serves as an effective approach to mitigating urban heat island (UHI) effects in mining regions. Analysis of satellite data from 2000 to 2020 demonstrates how increased vegetation coverage in Dexing, Qibaoshan, and Dartford reduces surface temperatures by up to 3 °C. The findings highlight the importance of integrating ecological
