Digital Mapping of Soil Organic Carbon Based on Machine Learning and Regression Kriging
In the last two decades, machine learning (ML) methods have been widely used in digital soil mapping (DSM), but the regression kriging (RK) model which combines the advantages of the ML and kriging methods has rarely been used in DSM. In addition, due to
