Predicting dissolved oxygen in a lagoon using interpretable machine learning
The goal of the study is to predict dissolved oxygen concentration in a lagoon with XGBoost algorithm, based on a series of explanatory variables (e.g., water temperature, pH value, oxidation-reduction potential, air temperature, salinity). Special focus is given on interpreting the outcomes using Additive exPlanations (SHAP) methodology, aiming to elucidate the environmental windows that cause low levels of dissolved oxygen (anoxic conditions), which may have severe impact on the survival rate of aquatic organisms.
