To improve the prevention and control of geological disasters in Shuicheng District, 10 environmental factors—slope, slope direction, curvature, NDVI, stratum lithology, distance from fault, river system, annual average rainfall, road land use—were selected as evaluation indicators by integrating factors such landform, basic geology, hydrometeorology engineering activities. Based on weight evid...

The aim of this study is to develop a new approach for delineating urban growth boundaries (UGBs) by applying the weight of evidence (WOE) method to land suitability assessments. Rapid urbanization is causing urban areas to encroach on agricultural land in China, posing a threat to national food security. Land use planning with clear delineation of UGBs is an effective method for controlling ur...

The term credit scoring refers to the application of formal statistical tools support or automate loan-issuing decision-making processes. One most extended methodologies for include fitting logistic regression models by using WOE explanatory variables, which are obtained through discretization original inputs means classification trees. However, this Weight Evidence (WOE)-based methodology enco...

Flash floods are one type of natural disaster that frequently occurs in Malaysia, especially urban areas. This paper’s objective is to develop the flash flood susceptibility mapping (FFSM) using weight evidence (WOE) Sungai Pinang catchment. The catchment located highly urbanised areas Georgetown. FFSM was developed six conditioning factors: elevation, slope, rainfall, land cover, distance from...

Uncertainties in sediment quality assessments are discussed in five categories: (1) sediment sampling, transport and storage; (2) sediment chemistry; (3) ecotoxicology; (4) benthic community structure; and (5) data uncertainties and QA/QC. Three major exposure routes are considered: whole sediments, and waters in sediment pores and at the sediment-water interface. If these uncertainties are not...

Extracting and synthesizing information from existing and massive amounts of geology spatial data sets is of great scientific significance and has considerable value in its applications. To make mineral exploration less expensive, more efficient, and more accurate, it is important to move beyond traditional concepts and establish a rapid, efficient, and intelligent method of predicting the exis...

groundwater resource is a very important water resource that has stable temperature, clear, tidy and confident. in recent years, population growth, industrialize and need to food and water, have exposed the groundwater resource on the risk. reduction of water resources is a main problem in throughout the world. in this research groundwater potential mapping was obtained in norabad plain, lorest...

Intoxication as a result of chemical accidents is a major issue in industrial health. The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) provides a framework for hazard communication on chemicals using labelling or safety data sheets. The GHS will be expected to reduce the number of chemical accidents by communicating the hazards posed and prompting safety measure...
