Study on the inversion and spatiotemporal variation mechanism of soil salinization at multiple depths in typical oases in arid areas: A case study of Wei-Ku Oasis by Jinming Zhang, Jianli Ding, Zihan Zhang, Jinjie Wang, Xu Zeng, Xiangyu Ge

“…The R² values for the test set of soil salinity prediction models at 10–20 cm, 20–40 cm, 40–60 cm, 60–80 cm, and 80–100 cm depths are 0.5, 0.57, 0.53, 0.5, and 0.52, respectively. (2) Based on soil salinity classification, the area of non-salinized soil at all depths shows an increasing trend, whereas non-salinized soil within the oasis exhibits salinity accumulation. (3) Soil salinity in the Wei-Ku Oasis is influenced by multiple types of driving factors, with the interaction of any two factors enhancing the explanatory power for salinity changes. …”
