Abstract
Toxic metals in soils pose hazards to food security and human health. Accurate source apportionment provides foundation for pollution prevention. In this study, a novel hybrid method that combines positive matrix factorization, Bayesian maximum entropy and integrative predictability criterion is proposed to provide a new perspective for exploring the heterogeneity of pollution sources in spatial random fields. The results suggest that Cd, As and Cu are the predominant pollutants, with exceedance rates of 27%, 12% and 11%, respectively. The new method demonstrates superiority in predicting toxic metals when combined major and all sources as auxiliary information., with the improvements of 44% and 46%, respectively, Although the major sources identified with the hybrid method are the primary contributors to the accumulation of toxic metals (e.g. coal combustion for Hg, traffic emission for Pb and Zn, industrial activities for As, agricultural activities for Cd and Cu and natural sources for Cr and Ni), the impact of nonmajor sources on toxic metal sin specific regions should not be ignored (e.g. industrial activities on Ni, Pb and Zn in the north and natural sources on Cd, Cu, As, Pb and Zn in the south). For better pollution control, specific local sources should be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND African trypanosomiasis is a tsetse-borne parasitic infection that affects humans, wildlife, and domesticated animals. Tsetse flies are endemic to much of Sub-Saharan Africa and a spatial and temporal understanding of tsetse habitat can aid surveillance and support disease risk management. Problematically, current fine spatial resolution remote sensing data are delivered with a temporal lag and are relatively coarse temporal resolution (e.g., 16 days), which results in disease control models often targeting incorrect places. The goal of this study was to devise a heuristic for identifying tsetse habitat (at a fine spatial resolution) into the future and in the temporal gaps where remote sensing and proximal data fail to supply information. METHODS This paper introduces a generalizable and scalable open-access version of the tsetse ecological distribution (TED) model used to predict tsetse distributions across space and time, and contributes a geospatial Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) prediction model trained by TED output data to forecast where, herein the Morsitans group of tsetse, persist in Kenya, a method that mitigates the temporal lag problem. This model facilitates identification of tsetse habitat and provides critical information to control tsetse, mitigate the impact of trypanosomiasis on vulnerable human and animal populations, and guide disease minimization in places with ephemeral tsetse. Moreover, this BME analysis is one of the first to utilize cluster and parallel computing along with a Monte Carlo analysis to optimize BME computations. This allows for the analysis of an exceptionally large dataset (over 2 billion data points) at a finer resolution and larger spatiotemporal scale than what had previously been possible. RESULTS Under the most conservative assessment for Kenya, the BME kriging analysis showed an overall prediction accuracy of 74.8% (limited to the maximum suitability extent). In predicting tsetse distribution outcomes for the entire country the BME kriging analysis was 97% accurate in its forecasts. CONCLUSIONS This work offers a solution to the persistent temporal data gap in accurate and spatially precise rainfall predictions and the delayed processing of remotely sensed data collectively in the - 45 days past to + 180 days future temporal window. As is shown here, the BME model is a reliable alternative for forecasting future tsetse distributions to allow preplanning for tsetse control. Furthermore, this model provides guidance on disease control that would otherwise not be available. These 'big data' BME methods are particularly useful for large domain studies. Considering that past BME studies required reduction of the spatiotemporal grid to facilitate analysis. Both the GEE-TED and the BME libraries have been made open source to enable reproducibility and offer continual updates into the future as new remotely sensed data become available.

Abstract
Combining with Carbon dioxide column concentration (XCO2) remote sensing data, it is of great scientific significance to obtain XCO2 long time series data with high precision and high spatio-temporal coverage. In this study, the combination framework of DINEOF and BME were employed to integrate the XCO2 data of GOSAT, OCO-2 and OCO-3 satellites for generating global XCO2 data from January 2010 to December 2020, with the average monthly space coverage rate of more than 96 %. Through cross-validation and comparison of The Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) XCO2 data and DINEOF-BME interpolation XCO2 products, it is verified that DINEOF-BME method has better interpolation accuracy, and the coefficient of determination of interpolated XCO2 products and TCCON data is 0.920. The long time series of global XCO2 products showed a wave rising trend, with a total increase of ~23 ppm; obviously seasonal characteristics were also detected with the highest XCO2 value in spring and the lowest in autumn. According to the zonal integration analysis, the values of XCO2 in the northern hemisphere is higher than the southern hemisphere during January-May and October-December, while the values of XCO2 in the southern hemisphere is higher than the northern hemisphere during June-September, which accords with the seasonal law. Through EOF mapping, the first mode accounted for 88.93 % of the total variability, and its variation trend is consistent with that of XCO2 concentration, which verifies the variation rule of XCO2 from the time and space pattern. Through wavelet analysis, the time scale corresponding to the first main cycle of XCO2 change is 59-month, which has obvious regularity on the time scale. DINEOF-BME technology framework has good generality, while XCO2 long time series data products and the spatio-temporal variation of XCO2 revealed by the research provide a solid theoretical basis and data support for related research.

Abstract
Excess fluoride (F-) in groundwater can be hazardous to human health. A total of 360 ground water samples was collected from northern Anhui, China, to study the levels, distribution, and source of F-. And on this basis, predicting the spatial distribution of F- in a wider scale space. The range of F- was 0.1-5.8 mg/L, with a mean value of 1.2 mg/L, and 26.4 % of the samples exceeded the acceptable level of 1.5 mg/L. Moreover, the water-rock interaction (fluorite dissolution) and cation alternate adsorption were considered to be two main driving factors of high F- in groundwater. To further illustrate the spatial effects, the BME-RF model was established by combining the main environmental factors. The spatial distribution of F- was quantitatively predicted, and the response to environmental variables was analyzed. The R2 of BME-RF model reached 0.93, the prediction results showed that the region with 1.0-1.5 mg/L of F- accounts for 47.2 % of the total area. The predicted F- content of nearly 70 % of groundwater in this area has exceeded 1.0 mg/L, which was dominated by Na+ and HCO3- type. The spatial variability of F- in the study area was mainly affected by hydrogeological conditions, and the vertical distribution characteristics were related to the spatial variation of slope, distance from runoff, and hydrochemical types. The results of the study provide new insights into the F- concentration prediction in underground environment, especially in the borehole gap area.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a new methodology for improving the results of seasonal drought forecasting by developing a Bayesian Maximum Entropy-based fusion (BMEF) model. The BMEF model combines the forecasts done by four individual (single-source) data-driven models to achieve better outcomes. Regional drought indices of Effective Drought Index (EDI) and Multiple Standard Precipitation Index (MSPI) are forecasted using the individual forecasting models of Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), Support Vector Regression (SVR), and M5tree. The outputs of the individual models with the best performances are selected to be fused using the BMEF model and the results are analyzed and compared. The effect of different large-scale climate signals on rainfall and drought forecasting is analyzed and the most effective climate variables are selected as predictors in the forecasting models. Next, the uncertainty analysis on the results of the individual models as well as those of the BMEF model is carried out by deriving the probability mass functions of the drought indices using a resampling technique and Monte Carlo analysis. Finally, the results of the uncertainty analysis are evaluated to compare the performance of individual models and the BME-based fusion model in decreasing the uncertainty of seasonal drought forecasting. The performance of the proposed methodology is evaluated by using it to forecast seasonal drought conditions in the southwest of Iran. Based on the results of the uncertainty analysis, the BMEF model provides more reliable forecasts particularly for severe drought events than the individual models. It is also inferred that adding the SST to the predictors, decreases the uncertainty of drought forecasts.

Abstract
Background “Schistosomiasis” is a highly recurrent parasitic disease that affects a wide range of areas and a large number of people worldwide. In China, schistosomiasis has seriously affected the life and safety of the people and restricted the economic development. Schistosomiasis is mainly distributed along the Yangtze River and in southern China. Anhui Province is located in the Yangtze River Basin of China, with dense water system, frequent floods and widespread distribution of Oncomelania hupensis that is the only intermediate host of schistosomiasis, a large number of cattle, sheep and other livestock, which makes it difficult to control schistosomiasis. It is of great significance to monitor and analyze spatiotemporal risk of schistosomiasis in Anhui Province, China. We compared and analyzed the optimal spatiotemporal interpolation model based on the data of schistosomiasis in Anhui Province, China and the spatiotemporal pattern of schistosomiasis risk was analyzed. Methods In this study, the root-mean-square-error (RMSE) and absolute residual (AR) indicators were used to compare the accuracy of Bayesian maximum entropy (BME), spatiotemporal Kriging (STKriging) and geographical and temporal weighted regression (GTWR) models for predicting the spatiotemporal risk of schistosomiasis in Anhui Province, China. Results The results showed that (1) daytime land surface temperature, mean minimum temperature, normalized difference vegetation index, soil moisture, soil bulk density and urbanization were significant factors affecting the risk of schistosomiasis; (2) the spatiotemporal distribution trends of schistosomiasis predicted by the three methods were basically consistent with the actual trends, but the prediction accuracy of BME was higher than that of STKriging and GTWR, indicating that BME predicted the prevalence of schistosomiasis more accurately; and (3) schistosomiasis in Anhui Province had a spatial autocorrelation within 20 km and a temporal correlation within 10 years when applying the optimal model BME. Conclusions This study suggests that BME exhibited the highest interpolation accuracy among the three spatiotemporal interpolation methods, which could enhance the risk prediction model of infectious diseases thereby providing scientific support for government decision making.

Abstract
Improving the spatiotemporal coverage of remote sensing (RS) products, such as sea surface chlorophyll concentration (SSCC), can offer a better understanding of the spatiotemporal SSCC distribution for ocean management purposes. In the first part of this work, 834 in-situ SSCC measurements of the SeaBASS-NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) during 2002-2016 served as the empirical dataset. A moving window with ±3 days and ±0.5° centered at each of the in-situ SSCC measurements established a search neighborhood for Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Level 2 (MODIS L2) SSCC and MODIS L2 sea surface temperature (SST) data, and the matched SSCC and SST data were used for building a linear SSCC-SST relationship. The unmatched SST was introduced to the linear model for generating soft SSCC data with uniform distributions. The inherent spatiotemporal dependency of the SSCC distribution was then represented by the Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) method, which incorporated the soft SSCC data as auxiliary variable for SSCC estimation and mapping purposes. The results showed that a 75.3% accuracy improvement of remote SSCC retrieval in terms of R2 can be achieved by BME-based method compared to the original MODIS L2 product. Subsequently, the BME-based method was applied to obtain daily SSCC dataset in Chesapeake Bay (USA) during the period 2010-2019. It was found that the SSCC distribution exhibited a decreasing spatial trend from the upper bay to the outer bay, whereas decreasing and increasing temporal trends were detected during the periods 2011-2014 and 2016-2019, respectively. The generalized Cauchy process was used to quantitatively describe the autocorrelation SSCC function in the Chesapeake Bay. The results showed that the outer bay exhibited the strongest long-range dependence among the four sub-regions, whereas the middle bay exhibited the weakest long-range dependence. Finally, one-point and two-point stochastic site indicators (SSIs) were employed to explore the spatiotemporal SSCC characteristics in Chesapeake Bay. The one-point SSI results showed that nearly 100% of the upper, middle and the lower bay areas experienced a high SSCC level (>5 mg/m3) during the entire study period. The area with SSCC >5 mg/m3 in the outer bay increased a lot during the winter season, but the area with SSCC >10 or 20 mg/m3 decreased significantly in the upper, middle and lower bay. Simultaneously, the SSCC dispersion in these areas was rather small during the winter season. On the other hand, the two-point SSI results showed that although the SSCC levels differ among the four sub-regions, but the SSCC connectivity structures between pairs of points also displayed some similarities in terms of their spatiotemporal dependency. In conclusion, the proposed BME-based method was shown to be a promising remote SSCC mapping technique that exhibited a powerful ability to improve both accuracy and coverage of RS products. The SSIs can be also used to explore the spatiotemporal characteristics of a variety of natural attributes in waters.

Abstract
Because ambient ozone (O3) has fine spatial scale variability in addition to a large scale regional distribution, accurate exposure predictions for population health studies need to also capture fine spatial scale differences in exposure. To address these needs, we developed a 3-year average land use regression (LUR) and combined LUR and Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) by incorporating a national area variability LUR model for China from 2015 to 2017 along with data that take into account incompleteness of O3 monitoring data into a BME framework. Spatio-temporal kriging models that either included or did not include "soft" data were used for comparison. The final LUR model included five predictor variables: road length within a 1000 m buffer, temperature, wind speed, industrial land area within a 3000 m buffer and altitude. The 1-year predicted O3 concentrations based on the ratio method moderately agreed with the measured concentration, and the regression R2 values were 0.53, 0.57 and 0.59 in the year of 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The LUR/BME model performed better (R2 = 0.80, root mean squared error [RMSE] = 23.5 μg/m3) than the ordinary spatio-temporal kriging model that either included "soft" data (R2 = 0.57, RMSE = 49.2 μg/m3) or did not include the "soft" data (R2 = 0.52, RMSE = 58.5 μg/m3). We have demonstrated that a hybrid LUR/BME model can provide accurate predictions of O3 concentrations with high spatio-temporal resolution at the national scale in mainland China.

Abstract
Remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) values measured by satellite sensors involve large amounts of uncertainty leading to non-negligible noise in remote Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration estimation. This work distinguished between two main stages in the case of estimating distributions of Chl-a within the Gulf of St. Lawrence (Canada). At the model building stage, the retrieval algorithm used both in-situ Chl-a measurements and the corresponding Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) L2-level data estimated Rrs at 412, 443, 469, 488, 531, 547, 555, 645, 667, 678 nm at a 1 km spatial resolution during 2004-2013. Through the training and validation of various models and Rrs combinations of the considered eight techniques (including support vector regression, artificial neural networks, gradient boosting machine, random forests, standard CI-OC3M, multiple linear regression, generalized addictive regression, principal component regression), the support vector regression (SVR) technique was shown to have the best performance in Chl-a concentration estimation using Rrs at 412, 443, 488, 531 and 678 nm. The accuracy indicators for both the training (850) and the validation (213) datasets were found to be very good to excellent (e.g., the R2 value varied between 0.7058 and 0.9068). At the space-time estimation stage, this work took a step forward by using the Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) theory to further process the SVR estimated Chl-a concentrations by incorporating the inherent spatiotemporal dependency of physical Chl-a distribution. A 56% improvement was achieved in the reduction of the mean uncertainty of the validation data decreased considerably (from 1.2222 to 0.5322 mg/m3). Then, this novel BME/SVR framework was employed to estimate the daily Chl-a concentrations in the Gulf of St. Lawrence during Jan 1-Dec 31 of 2017 (1 km spatial resolution). The results showed that the daily mean Chl-a concentration varied from 1.6630 to 3.3431 mg/m3, and that the daily mean Chl-a uncertainty reduction of the composite BME/SVR vs. the SVR estimation had a maximum reduction value of 1.0082 and an average reduction value of 0.6173 mg/m3. The monthly spatial Chl-a distribution covariances showed that the highest Chl-a concentration variability occurred during November and that the spatiotemporal Chl-a concentration pattern changed a lot during the period August to November. In conclusion, the proposed BME/SVR was shown to be a promising remote Chl-a retrieval approach that exhibited a significant ability in reducing the non-negligible uncertainty and improving the accuracy of remote sensing Chl-a concentration estimates.

Abstract
The chemical industry is of paramount importance to the world economy and this industrial sector represents a substantial income source for developing countries. However, the chemical plants producing inside an industrial district pose a great threat to the surrounding atmospheric environment and human health. Therefore, designing an appropriate and available air quality monitoring network (AQMN) is essential for assessing the effectiveness of deployed pollution-controlling strategies and facilities. As monitoring facilities located at inappropriate sites would affect data validity, a two-stage data-driven approach constituted of a spatio-temporal technique (i.e. Bayesian maximum entropy) and a multi-objective optimization model (i.e. maximum concentration detection capability and maximum dosage detection capability) is proposed in this paper. The approach aims at optimizing the design of an AQMN formed by gas sensor modules. Owing to the lack of long-term measurement data, our developed atmospheric dispersion simulation system was employed to generate simulated data for the above method. Finally, an illustrative case study was implemented to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed approach, and results imply that this work is able to design an appropriate AQMN with acceptable accuracy and efficiency.

Abstract
Concentrations of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter <2.5 μm (PM2.5) are relatively high in China. Estimation of PM2.5 exposure is complex because PM2.5 exhibits complex spatiotemporal patterns. To improve the validity of exposure predictions, several methods have been developed and applied worldwide. A hybrid approach combining a land use regression (LUR) model and Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) interpolation of the LUR space-time residuals were developed to estimate the PM2.5 concentrations on a national scale in China. This hybrid model could potentially provide more valid predictions than a commonly-used LUR model. The LUR/BME model had good performance characteristics, with R2 = 0.82 and root mean square error (RMSE) of 4.6 μg/m3. Prediction errors of the LUR/BME model were reduced by incorporating soft data accounting for data uncertainty, with the R2 increasing by 6%. The performance of LUR/BME is better than OK/BME. The LUR/BME model is the most accurate fine spatial scale PM2.5 model developed to date for China.

Abstract
Currently in the United States there are no regulatory standards for ambient concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), a class of organic compounds with known carcinogenic species. As such, monitoring data are not routinely collected resulting in limited exposure mapping and epidemiologic studies. This work develops the log-mass fraction (LMF) Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) geostatistical prediction method used to predict the concentration of nine particle-bound PAHs across the US state of North Carolina. The LMF method develops a relationship between a relatively small number of collocated PAH and fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) samples collected in 2005 and applies that relationship to a larger number of locations where PM2.5 is routinely monitored to more broadly estimate PAH concentrations across the state. Cross validation and mapping results indicate that by incorporating both PAH and PM2.5 data, the LMF BME method reduces mean squared error by 28.4% and produces more realistic spatial gradients compared to the traditional kriging approach based solely on observed PAH data. The LMF BME method efficiently creates PAH predictions in a PAH data sparse and PM2.5 data rich setting, opening the door for more expansive epidemiologic exposure assessments of ambient PAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The thyroid cancer (TC) incidence in China has increased dramatically during the last three decades. Typical in this respect is the case of Hangzhou city (China), where 7147 new TC cases were diagnosed during the period 2008-2012. Hence, the assessment of the TC incidence risk increase due to environmental exposure is an important public health matter. METHODS Correlation analysis, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Poisson regression were first used to evaluate the statistical association between TC and key risk factors (industrial density and socioeconomic status). Then, the Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) theory and the integrative disease predictability (IDP) criterion were combined to quantitatively assess both the overall and the spatially distributed strength of the "exposure-disease" association. RESULTS Overall, higher socioeconomic status was positively correlated with higher TC risk (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.687, P<0.01). Compared to people of low socioeconomic status, people of median and high socioeconomic status showed higher TC risk: the Relative Risk (RR) and associated 95% confidence interval (CI) were found to be, respectively, RR=2.29 with 95% CI=1.99 to 2.63, and RR=3.67 with 95% CI=3.22 to 4.19. The "industrial density-TC incidence" correlation, however, was non-significant. Spatially, the "socioeconomic status-TC" association measured by the corresponding IDP coefficient was significant throughout the study area: the mean IDP value was -0.12 and the spatial IDP values were consistently negative at the township level. It was found that stronger associations were distributed among residents mainly on a stripe of land from northeast to southwest (consisting mainly of sub-district areas). The "industrial density-TC" association measured by its IDP coefficient was spatially non-consistent. CONCLUSIONS Socioeconomic status is an important indicator of TC risk factor in Hangzhou (China) whose effect varies across space. Hence, socioeconomic status shows the highest TC risk effect in sub-district areas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Injuries among pedestrians are a major public health concern in Colombian cities such as Cali. This is one of the first studies in Latin America to apply Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) methods to visualize and produce fine-scale, highly accurate estimates of citywide pedestrian fatalities. The purpose of this study is to determine the BME method that best estimates pedestrian mortality rates and reduces statistical noise. We further utilized BME methods to identify and differentiate spatial patterns and persistent versus transient pedestrian mortality hotspots. METHODS In this multiyear study, geocoded pedestrian mortality data from the Cali Injury Surveillance System (2008 to 2010) and census data were utilized to accurately visualize and estimate pedestrian fatalities. We investigated the effects of temporal and spatial scales, addressing issues arising from the rarity of pedestrian fatality events using 3 BME methods (simple kriging, Poisson kriging, and uniform model Bayesian maximum entropy). To reduce statistical noise while retaining a fine spatial and temporal scale, data were aggregated over 9-month incidence periods and censal sectors. Based on a cross-validation of BME methods, Poisson kriging was selected as the best BME method. Finally, the spatiotemporal and urban built environment characteristics of Cali pedestrian mortality hotspots were linked to intervention measures provided in Mead et al.'s (2014) pedestrian mortality review. RESULTS The BME space-time analysis in Cali resulted in maps displaying hotspots of high pedestrian fatalities extending over small areas with radii of 0.25 to 1.1 km and temporal durations of 1 month to 3 years. Mapping the spatiotemporal distribution of pedestrian mortality rates identified high-priority areas for prevention strategies. The BME results allow us to identify possible intervention strategies according to the persistence and built environment of the hotspot; for example, through enforcement or long-term environmental modifications. CONCLUSIONS BME methods provide useful information on the time and place of injuries and can inform policy strategies by isolating priority areas for interventions, contributing to intervention evaluation, and helping to generate hypotheses and identify the preventative strategies that may be suitable to those areas (e.g., street-level methods: pedestrian crossings, enforcement interventions; or citywide approaches: limiting vehicle speeds). This specific information is highly relevant for public health interventions because it provides the ability to target precise locations.

Abstract
Fine airborne particulate matter (PM2.5) has adverse effects on human health. Assessing the long-term effects of PM2.5 exposure on human health and ecology is often limited by a lack of reliable PM2.5 measurements. In Taipei, PM2.5 levels were not systematically measured until August, 2005. Due to the popularity of geographic information systems (GIS), the landuse regression method has been widely used in the spatial estimation of PM concentrations. This method accounts for the potential contributing factors of the local environment, such as traffic volume. Geostatistical methods, on other hand, account for the spatiotemporal dependence among the observations of ambient pollutants. This study assesses the performance of the landuse regression model for the spatiotemporal estimation of PM2.5 in the Taipei area. Specifically, this study integrates the landuse regression model with the geostatistical approach within the framework of the Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) method. The resulting epistemic framework can assimilate knowledge bases including: (a) empirical-based spatial trends of PM concentration based on landuse regression, (b) the spatio-temporal dependence among PM observation information, and (c) site-specific PM observations. The proposed approach performs the spatiotemporal estimation of PM2.5 levels in the Taipei area (Taiwan) from 2005–2007.

Abstract
A logistic model was employed to correlate the outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) with related environmental factors and the migration of birds. Based on MODIS data of the normalized difference vegetation index, environmental factors were considered in generating a probability map with the aid of logistic regression. A Bayesian maximum entropy model was employed to explore the spatial and temporal correlations of HPAI incidence. The results show that proximity to water bodies and national highways was statistically relevant to the occurrence of HPAI. Migratory birds, mainly waterfowl, were important infection sources in HPAI transmission. In addition, the HPAI outbreaks had high spatiotemporal autocorrelation. This epidemic spatial range fluctuated 45 km owing to different distribution patterns of cities and water bodies. Furthermore, two outbreaks were likely to occur with a period of 22 d. The potential risk of occurrence of HPAI in Mainland China for the period from January 23 to February 17, 2004 was simulated based on these findings, providing a useful meta-model framework for the application of environmental factors in the prediction of HPAI risk.
