This review underscores the need for enhanced environmental monitoring to improve Ascaris egg remediation and reduce disease incidence. We critically reviewed existing environmental monitoring practices and explored advanced technologies like lab-on-a-disk for rapid detection and quantification of Ascaris eggs. A meta-analysis and meta-regression of studies on Ascaris egg recovery revealed significant variability in recovery rates, with the best methods achieving less than 60% efficiency. Advanced imaging analyses and lab-on-a-disk technologies show promise for rapid detection and viability assessment. By identifying gaps in current methodologies, we recommend more effective environmental interventions. The review incorporated high-quality data adhering to PRISMA guidelines, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the latest methodologies. Integrating improved detection methods and environmental control strategies can significantly reduce ascariasis incidence, especially in endemic regions. Future efforts should focus on refining these technologies and validating their application in real-world settings for sustainable disease control.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":"32 17","pages":"10688 - 10704"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143770888","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}

Groundwater serves as a vital freshwater resource, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, making its efficient management essential. In this study, the GALDIT method—an index-based approach that evaluates the vulnerability of aquifers by scoring six key parameters based on expert judgment (groundwater occurrence (G), aquifer hydraulic conductivity (A), groundwater elevation above sea level (L), distance from the shoreline (D), impact of existing seawater intrusion (I), and aquifer thickness (T))—was employed to assess the vulnerability of the Shabestar aquifer to SWI. The study employs the GALDIT method to map aquifer vulnerability for 2002, 2012, and 2022, enabling a temporal comparison of changes over time. The final GALDIT index map, categorized into low, moderate, and high vulnerability classes, revealed an increase in very high vulnerability areas from 10.9% in 2002 to 17.8% in 2022, alongside a decrease in moderate vulnerability areas from 56.4 to 37.3%, indicating a deteriorating condition of the aquifer. However, the reliance on expert judgment introduces potential subjectivity and bias in the vulnerability assessment. To mitigate these limitations, AI-based models, namely artificial neural networks (ANNs) and random forest (RF), were applied to enhance model performance. The GALDIT parameters served as input for the AI models, while observed electrical conductivity (EC), a key indicator of water salinity, and total dissolved solids (TDS), an indicator of drinking water quality, were used as output variables to estimate condition for the year 2022. Results demonstrated that the ANN model outperformed the RF model during verification, improving estimation accuracy by up to 10% and 9% in terms of the determination coefficient (DC), respectively. To further enhance model interpretability and identify the most influential parameters for EC and TDS estimation, a global, variance-based sensitivity analysis using the Sobol method was conducted. This analysis revealed that factors I and D were the most influential for EC, while factors I and T had the greatest impact on TDS in the study region.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":545,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Pollution Research","volume":"32 17","pages":"10855 - 10876"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143770896","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}
