Machine Learning Reveals Large-scale Impact of Posidonia Oceanica on Mediterranean Sea Water

arXiv:2402.14459v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: Posidonia oceanica is a protected endemic seagrass of Mediterranean sea that fosters biodiversity, stores carbon, releases oxygen, and provides habitat to numerous sea organisms. Leveraging augmented research, we collected a comprehensive dataset of 174 features compiled from diverse data sources. Through machine learning analysis, we discovered the existence of a robust correlation between the exact location of P. oceanica and water biogeochemical properties. The model's feature importance, showed that carbon-related variables as net biomass production …
