Machine learning model maps soil salinity in Bangladesh

Researchers have developed a machine-learning framework to map and predict soil salinity in Satkhira, Bangladesh, using field data and satellite imagery. An Extreme Gradient Boosting model, trained on 205 soil samples, identified key spectral predictors and revealed significant spatial variability in salinity levels. The study generated 10-year exposure maps highlighting persistent and expanding high-salinity zones, offering a scalable approach for monitoring and supporting climate-resilient agriculture and land-use planning.
