Deciphering and predicting algal bloom variability using size-fractionated organic matter and machine learning in a complex watershed by Yun Kyung Lee, Haeseong Oh, Bo-Mi Lee, Jin Hur

“…For this purpose, we incorporated molecular DOM fractions and fluorescence-based spectroscopic properties into machine learning (ML) models to predict chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations in the Han River watershed, one of South Korea’s largest and most complex freshwater systems. Three ML models, extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), deep neural networks (DNN), and multiple linear regression (MLR), were evaluated using a year-long dataset. …”
