Integrating environmental and LULC drivers of groundwater droughts in groundwater-dependent ecosystems: a machine learning (XGBoost)-SEM analysis with ecosystem implications

Integrating environmental and LULC drivers of groundwater droughts in groundwater-dependent ecosystems: a machine learning (XGBoost)-SEM analysis with ecosystem implications

Abstract Background Investigating the influencing factors of groundwater drought offers critical insights for the sustainable management of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs). The Upper Zambezi Catchment hosts a large-scale alluvial aquifer system, which is vulnerable to the effects of climate...
