Machine learning-based geospatial applications offer unique opportunities for environmental monitoring due to domains and scales adaptability and computational efficiency. However, the specificity of environmental data introduces biases in straightforward implementations. We identify a streamlined pipeline to enhance model accuracy, addressing issues like imbalanced data, spatial autocorrelation, prediction errors, and the nuances of model generalization and uncertainty estimation.

These alkynylpyridinium salts are efficient 'push-pull' chromophores demonstrating bright UV-vis fluorescence with quantum yields up to 70 %. The homoleptic bis-alkynyl Au(I) complexes based on these alkynylpyridinium ligands demonstrate complicated photophysical behavior including dual emission in solution.

Landsat-7 has supplied multi-spectral imagery of the Earth's surface for more than 4 years and has become an important data source for a large number of research and policy-making initiatives. Unfortunately, a scan line corrector (SLC) on Landsat-7 broke down in May 2003, which caused the loss of up to 22 percent of any given scene.

Machine learning methods are widely implemented for crop type recognition and classification based on satellite images. However, field classification is complicated by class imbalance and aggregation of pixel-wise into field-wise forecasting.
