Using Advanced GeoAI-Based Ensemble Mixed Spatial Prediction Model to Estimate Ambient Ammonia
This study developed a Geo-AI-based ensemble mixed spatial model (EMSM) to predict ambient ammonia (NH3) concentrations in Tainan, Taiwan, leveraging morning average NH3 data from 45 sites (2021–2022). By integrating kriging, five machine learning algorithms (XGBoost, Gradient Boosting, CatBoost, LightGBM, Random Forest), and ensemble methods with in-situ, geospatial, meteorological, and social factors, the EMSM achieved a model performance of up to 94% adjusted R², significantly outperforming individual models. Key predictors included NH3 kriging based data, paddy fields, petrochemical raw material industry, roads, and public restroom quantity. The model provides precise spatiotemporal estimates, revealing higher NH3 levels in eastern Tainan due to factors like the Yongkang incineration plant and agricultural activities, which are crucial for informing pollution control strategies and epidemiological studies.

Peak Model Performance (Adjusted R²)
The Ensemble Mixed Spatial Model (EMSM) achieved an adjusted R² of 0.94, a significant improvement from the 0.72 baseline, indicating its robust ability to explain spatiotemporal variance in NH3 concentrations. This strong performance, coupled with an RMSE of only 0.04 ppb, demonstrates the model's high accuracy and reliability for environmental monitoring.
Dominant Factors Driving Ambient NH3 Concentrations
SHAP analysis identified the most significant predictors for ambient NH3 concentrations in Tainan. The top three factors were 'NH3 kriging based', 'paddy within a 750m circular buffer', and 'petrochemical raw material industry within a 150m circular buffer'. Additionally, 'all roads' and 'public restroom quantity' showed favorable connections to NH3 levels. This highlights the importance of agricultural activities, industrial processes, traffic emissions, and public infrastructure in influencing urban air quality.
- NH3 kriging based: Top predictor for capturing spatial variance.
- Paddy fields (750m buffer): Significant source due to urea hydrolysis following fertilizer application.
- Petrochemical industry (150m buffer): Contributes through the synthesis of ammonia-containing compounds.
- All Roads (150m buffer): Vehicle exhaust emissions, especially with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems.
- Public Restroom Quantity (50m buffer): A common source of ammonia in urban environments.
