The selection of a stochastic process model, particularly its memory structure, is often subject to misspecifications owing to low data quality and quantity. Therefore, environmental risk assessment should account for model misspecification through mathematically rigorous and efficiently implementable approaches; however, such approaches have been still rare. We address this issue by first modeling water quality dynamics through the superposition of an affine diffusion process that is stationary and has a long memory. Second, the worst-case upper deviation of the water quality value from a prescribed threshold value under model misspecifications is evaluated using either the divergence risk or Wasserstein risk measure. The divergence risk measure can consistently deal with the misspecification of the memory structure to the worst-case upper deviation. The Wasserstein risk measure is more flexible but fails in this regard, as it does not directly consider the memory structure information. We theoretically compare both approaches to demonstrate that their assumed uncertainties differed substantially. From the application to the 30-year water quality data of a river in Japan, we categorized the water quality indices to be those with truly long memory (Total nitrogen, NO<sub>3</sub>-N, NH<sub>4</sub>-N, and <span>({{text{SO}}}_{4}^{2-})</span>), those with moderate power-type memory (NO<sub>2</sub>-N, PO<sub>4</sub>-P, and Total Organic Carbon), and those with almost exponential memory (Total phosphorus and Chemical Oxygen demand).

To improve and protect the ecological environment, it is crucial to accurately assess and monitor its eco-environmental quality. With consideration of the characteristics of terrestrial salinization in the region and the need for long-term ecological monitoring, we first utilized Google Earth Engine (GEE) to construct the Improved Remote Sensing Ecological Index (IRSEI). The IRSEI is based on the Remote Sensing Ecological Index (RSEI), which consists of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), WET, Land Surface Temperature (LST), and Normalized Difference Built-Up and Soil Index (NDBSI), as well as the Net Primary Productivity (NPP) index. The entropy weighting method was employed to construct the IRSEI for assessing the eco-environmental quality of the Yellow River Delta. The validity of the index was verified through image entropy and contrast assessment. We then employed the Hurst exponent, Sen's slope estimation, and Coefficient of Variation (CV) to calculate the range of variation of the IRSEI in the Yellow River Delta over a 20-year period to analyze the spatio-temporal evolution of the ecological quality and its distribution pattern. Furthermore, we conducted a comprehensive analysis combining the Geographically and Temporally Weighted Regression (GTWR) model and Geodetector to understand the influence of drivers such as topography, soil, and climate on the IRSEI, considering both the temporal and spatial dimensions. The results indicate that: (1) The proposed IRSEI demonstrates higher reliability, adaptability, and sensitivity compared to RSEI in monitoring the eco-environmental quality of the Yellow River Delta. (2) From 2000 to 2020, the eco-environmental quality of the Yellow River Delta remained generally stable, with a spatial distribution resembling a \"Y\" shape, showing significant improvement, particularly in Lijin County and its surrounding areas. However, the middle and eastern estuary exhibited a declining trend in eco-environmental quality. (3) The impact of driving factors on the eco-environmental quality varied across the four subordinate regions of the Yellow River Delta, indicating spatial heterogeneity. Factors such as FVC, Soil, LST, JS, and Srad significantly influenced and explained the spatial differentiation of eco-environmental quality in the region. The proposed IRSEI demonstrates better monitoring capabilities in the Yellow River Delta compared to RSEI, providing a scientific basis for land use planning and ecological protection in the area.</p>","PeriodicalId":21987,"journal":{"name":"Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140941164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A pivotal parameter in the calculation of flow discharge over the weir is the discharge coefficient (<i>C</i><sub><i>d</i></sub>). This study involves a comprehensive comparative analysis of various <i>C</i><sub><i>d</i></sub> estimation methodologies for MSCWs, employing a range of machine learning-based models, notably including Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS), M5 tree, Locally Weighted Polynomial Regression (LWPR), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) models. To begin, a feature selection analysis utilizing the Gamma Test (GT) method was conducted to identify the optimal input configuration for modeling the discharge of MSCWs. The results of the feature selection revealed that the <i>C</i><sub><i>d</i></sub> of the MSCWs is primarily influenced by the ratio of upstream flow depth (<i>y</i><sub><i>up</i></sub>) to crest radius (<i>R</i>), while showing negligible sensitivity to the slope of the downstream ramp (<i>θ</i>). The dataset was partitioned into two segments: 70% were assigned to the training stage, while the remaining 30% were allocated to the testing stage. The precision of <i>C</i><sub><i>d</i></sub> predictions is evaluated through four key statistical metrics: Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Correlation Coefficient (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup>), and Nash –Sutcliff Efficiency (NSE). The outcomes reveal that, for the training and testing phases, the <i>R</i><sup>2</sup> values for the ANN, MARS, M5 tree, LWPR and SVM models are respectively 0.967, 0.931, 0.974, 0.937, and 0.933, and 0.925, 0.953, 0.953, 0.980, and 0.954.

In particular, the coefficient of variation of the burn count is equal to the inverse square root of its expected value, and this expected value is proportional to the number of simulated fires multiplied by the asymptotic burn probability. From these results, we derive practical guidelines for choosing the number of simulated fires and estimating the sampling error.
